Intentional Living


Intentional Living is the “WHY” behind what we do. It’s critical to ask yourself “why” you do what you do! Paul said, Be very careful how you live – not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity! Ephesians 5:15-16. That’s intentional living!
I love this quote from a group called  Intentional Travel – “Intentional Living means making choices for your life based on your greatest values and not the habits of others. They probably weren’t thinking of “God’s values” but for a believer you can’t get any greater. Don’t base your life on what others think is right – go to the source of righteousness and “follow Him.”
You are to focus on Christ in obedience and love Him and the world around you. Let each of you not focus on your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.  In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Philippians 2:4-5
Be Intentional! – Love the Lord and your neighbor. Follow Him in obedience. Do what Jesus would do.
Amen?
