As we go through life it is easy to fall into a comfortable pattern or routine: devotions, work/school, dinner, TV/reading, bed, start over - Wednesday evening prayer service, Sunday church, week after week. We could feel pretty good about the regularity of our devotional/prayer life. But how intentional are we about all the time that happens in-between? Moment-by-moment we are afforded choices about what to do, what we think about, etc. We could go through our "Christian routine" all the while our heart and mind is grumbling about the woman at church who gets all the attention and accolades or we could be musing about our husband's lack of attention. How intentional are we to live EVERY MOMENT IN CHRIST?
1 Corinthians 9:25-26 "Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable. So I do not run aimlessly; I do not box as one beating the air."
Are you running towards the goal? Every single step? Are you "hitting" your target? Every "punch" you throw?Let's chose to live in Christ with determined intentionality.
Diane
