I had the honor and privilege of sitting in a room tonight with brothers and sisters in Christ from across the globe. As I sat there and listened to the stories of Christians from China, it was obvious that these beautiful Christians live very intentional, on-purpose lives. I sat in awe and excitement to hear… Continue reading Wow God {Day 17 – Intentionality}

An Intentional God {Day 15 – Intentionality}
I'm not sure what it is the last couple of days, but the thoughts that have come my way on intentionality, have been short, sweet, and to the point. Here's what's been going through my mind today: Nothing surprises God. He is intentional in everything He does. As someone who is often easily distracted it… Continue reading An Intentional God {Day 15 – Intentionality}
Change and Growth {Day 15}
Halfway theought this journey and today I just wanted to share a slight variation on a common quote that I saw recently: "Change is inevitable. Growth is intentional." Any Thoughts? Comments? Reactions? How do you see this in your own life?
Abiding Branches {Day 14 – Intentionality}
John 15 has been following me around lately... and I couldn't be more grateful. It's been the focus of two Bible Study's recently, a friend reminded me of it the other day, and then Pastor preached on it this morning. What I love is that I can also see so many connections to this focus… Continue reading Abiding Branches {Day 14 – Intentionality}
“What else?” – God-Sighting Saturday {Day 13 – Intentionality}
It all happened so quick that one Thursday morning. Right between breakfast and getting ready to head off to work. It could have easily slipped away, and yet it didn't. It happened.... and it was beautiful. I thought back to all those conversations in college with a mentor and friend who was intentional about the… Continue reading “What else?” – God-Sighting Saturday {Day 13 – Intentionality}
An Experiment in Intentionality {Day 12}
**Note: Opps... this didn't get posted yesterday. I guess that means today is a 2-for-1 special. Here's the post that was supposed to go up yesterday: So today was what I'd like to call an "experiment" in intentionality. The ironic thing is that this wasn't actually planned going into the day, but sort of developed… Continue reading An Experiment in Intentionality {Day 12}
The 3: October Version {Day 11 – Intentionality}
At the end of August, I started what I hoped would be a monthly series on my blog called "The 3" which simply includes 3 things I'm learning in life right now. I missed September, but in an effort to be more INTENTIONAL, here we are near the beginning of the month for October's version.… Continue reading The 3: October Version {Day 11 – Intentionality}
Motives {Day 10 – Intentionality}
Have you ever been misunderstood? You said something and the person listening took you to mean something completely different. It happened tonight with a friend. She was talking about "playing music" meaning playing it on an ipod where as my mind instantly thought she meant PLAYING music, like on a guitar or piano. As funny… Continue reading Motives {Day 10 – Intentionality}
Obedience {Intentionality – Day 9}
I've tried a couple ways to write the story I want to share tonight and it just won't come out, partly because I am speechless in response to the amazing ways in which God works. What I can say is that living with a focus on intentionality is changing me. Because of this focus I… Continue reading Obedience {Intentionality – Day 9}
Just ask! {Day 8 of 31 – Intentionality}
I'm not sure whether this is a good or bad thing (I think it really depends on the situation), but I'm a pretty independent person. In addition to an independent personality, various situations in life have increased my need, desire, and ability to be independent. If there's a way for something to be done, I'm… Continue reading Just ask! {Day 8 of 31 – Intentionality}
