Year of Intention
I am always amazed at the amount of New Years resolutions that are made and just as quickly broken. How do I know this happens? Because I am one of the millions (possibly billions) of people who have done that very thing. The beginning of a new year rolls around, resolutions are made and then.... I am sure you can get the picture. It is a very vicious cycle. I was reading an article the other day that I believe sheds some light on how to overcome this. The article was discussing the importance of being intentional. It really caused me to do some thinking. I believe that nothing really great comes by accident. If it is truly great it was the result of someone being very intentional to ensure its greatness. I believe that God is an intentional God in everything He does and if we are to emulate Him we need to be intentional. So my resolution for 2008 is to be intentional. There are certain things that I believe need to be accomplished this year and if I am not intentional, well.... Hopefull this intentionality will show up in the accomplishment of tasks for the glory of God and His Kingdom.
