Intentional Living

My mouth is filled with your praise,
and with your glory all day long.
(Psalm 71:8, NRS)

Good Morning,

Snow and ice caused closures and delays in our area. Nonetheless, some people intentionally were able to stay on schedule. Regardless of schedules and circumstances individuals choose to live intentionally blessed. Intentional blessed individuals recognize the activity of God within their being and in the world.
Knowing the abiding Spirit of God produces a lifestyle of praise. Accordingly, individuals who intentionally praise God discover the sacredness of daily living.

The Psalmist intentionally praised God:

My mouth is filled with your praise: The awareness of the presence of God generates praise. Praise broadens our perspective of living to see the sacred details.

Bless the LORD,
O my soul.
O LORD my God, you are very great.
You are clothed with honor and majesty
(Psalm 104:1, NRS).

And with your glory: In all of the glory (power and majesty) God invites us to abide in and with Him all day long. Intentionally abiding with God throughout the day allows us to perceive the sacredness of living.

Live with intention.
Intentionally develop an awareness of the abiding presence of God.
Intentionally praise God.
Intentionally abide in the presence of God all day long.
Intentionally celebrate the sacredness of living.


Learning with you to intentionally praise God,
Kerrie
