Intention. Are you just sleep-walking through life? Or do you get up in the morning intending to do something or be somebody?
A friend advises, “Pray with intention. Pray specifically that God will bring someone into your life that answers a need or fits a mission you have.”
Another advisor talking about becoming a morning person advises getting up in the morning with intention.
I think that they mean that you do things “on purpose.” You’ve thought it out. Planned for it. Expect good things to happen. Consciously brought God into the situation.
During the past three or four months that this advice has been on my mind, story after story pops up about amazing things that happened while praying with intention. Both in my life as I decided to change some direction, and in the lives of others I’ve met.
To live an intentional life, consider these attributes:
- Awake
- Aware
- Conscious
- Planning for
- Focus
Try it. You’ll like it.
