Be Intentional In Every Area of Life
Be Intentional In Every Area of Life
ByMany times we live life just going through the motions. For some, life is like a game of dice. They shake it up, throw it out there and hope it lands on a good number.
Sometimes you can’t just live life going wherever the wind takes you. You can’t just spend the wheel and hope to get a good pick. No, you have to be intentional about the things of life. You have do things with a purpose in mind.
For instance, many people will sow a seed simply because it’s “the thing” to do. For some, giving has become common place. They’re just going through the motions. And that’s fine as long as you’re consistently putting seed in the ground. But it’s important that you do it with intention. You should never forget the reason for giving.
When you tip the waitress at the restaurant, don’t just do it because that’s the thing you’re supposed to do. No, use that as an opportunity to be intentional. Look at it as a seed that you’re putting in the ground. When you give to others your intention is to help them and in return you will reap a harvest.
When you let someone in front of you at the grocery store line, do it with intention. Let it serve a purpose. For the scriptures remind you to treat others the way you want to be treated. In other words, when you show favor to someone else, favor will come back to you.
My friend, don’t just go through the ropes of life. If you want to make it to the next level, you have to take charge and do things with purpose. Don’t go through the day being tossed to and from in the wind. No, there should be a purpose behind what you do. Form a strategy in everything that you do.
Don’t be like the stray piece of paper blowing in the wind. No, sometimes you have to go against the wind. Take charge of your destiny. In doing so, God will promote you to a higher dimension as you charge forth on your journey of life!
