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?
