Intention

Today I was blessed to lead worship at LCBC Ephrata alongside some of the most wonderful people. The message was very a powerful reminder for me with so much right now. It left me with several questions…

1. What direction am I heading each day?
2. What are my goals/intentions for each day?
3. Do I look at every interaction as eternal with a being who will outlast this moment?


So, to answer and further think these questions through for myself...
1. The direction I ought to aim toward each day is eternal.
2. My intention for each day should be to be able to answer the question what would a God fearing and GREAT ______ (fill in the blank) Do in this situation?
Wife
Mom
Daughter
Sister
Friend

3. Every human being has an eternal soul with beauty, value and giftings… Am I living my interactions through that lens of truth?

Am I being the kind of wife I want my son to look for someday? Am I being the kind of mom and wife I want my daughters to become someday? Am I being the kind of daughter I want my daughters to be? Am I being the kind of friend I want my friends to be?

God is so powerful, so loving and kind! He has such beautiful things in store for us! Sometimes His purposes are so unseen and His hand feels distant. But thank God we don't have to base our life off of feelings, we can base it off of truth! Truth is unchanging! Truth is freeing! Truth is uplifting and guiding and hope bringing!

God is a Rock unmoved in our circumstances that feel often so shifting, so rocked and moved and unstable and not secure.

My heart is thankful for His great love and power and the gift of the Holy Spirit He gives us to, as Scott said, “Dance with the new woman” the Holy Spirit is creating within me!

Be blessed
