Live intentionally.
What does that even mean and why does it matter? Living intentionally means to live according to our personal values and beliefs, and to make choices in life that reflect those values and beliefs. This may include making deliberate decisions daily to do what's important to each one of us. It may include living with a sense of purpose by following certain practices such as exercising every day or drinking a certain amount of water. It may also be staying mindful and deliberate with our actions and activities, especially if we're focused on reaching certain goals.
An example: when I was writing my book, Right Now Matters, in 2023, I became extremely intentional about completing the book before my deadline of August 1. My daily routine centered around writing and editing and the many decisions that I needed to make in publishing my book. I lived intentionally during those months because that was my goal.
Another example: every day I intentionally spend time with God, either through His Word--the Bible--or through dedicated prayer, or playing worship music in our home, or through talking with Him throughout my day. Maybe all these ways some days! My desire is to live intentionally by communing with God every day.
When we choose to live intentionally, we also honor God.
Don't you think God desires for us to live intentionally, and not just flying by the seat of our pants?
In this episode I share four practical steps to live intentionally every day.
This isn't about doing more, it's about doing what matters most. I'm cheering you on and praying for you! God bless you!
