Both of my kids love the Mathew West song, “The Motions.” I’m pretty sure they can sing every word. The chorus says:
“I don’t wanna go through the motions
I don’t wanna go one more day
without Your all consuming passion inside of me.
I don’t wanna spend my whole life asking,
“What if I had given everything,
instead of going through the motions?”
I cannot tell you how much I pray this very thing over my children. How much I don’t just want them to go through the motions of life. But to go through them intentionally.
Intentionally.
With purpose.
With resolve to do life in a way that makes a difference.
Where they live beyond themselves.
And, quite possibly, change the world.
My Dad begins a new series this Sunday called “Intentional.” Intentional in our pursuit after Christ. Intentional in our marriage. Intentional in how we parent our children. Intentional with one another.
I’m pretty excited about it. As a matter of fact, I’m building my life on it.
Are you doing life intentionally?
