Intentional

So for the past few weeks I have just been in a funk. Jeff and I talked about it this weekend-usually I am the type that just tries to ball it up and keep things to myself. But thank God for an amazing husband who sees right through that and can speak into my heart. After our talk, although I knew I still wasn't completely out of my funk, it felt good to talk about it. Then, the next day I was listening to BOTT radio network and Intentional Living. What a great show and I thought to myself, you know I really haven't been intentional lately-I've just been going through life like whatever-my relationship with God has been stagnant and everything else has just seemed status quo to be honest. Just going through the routine of each day. Since I heard that show though (which I have heard before), I realized that maybe being more intentional with my days would benefit me and the ones I love. So the past few days I have tried it and it has worked-I have been more intentional in loving on my husband, which I have to be honest-I haven't been the greatest at lately. He needs to know and hear how much he is loved. I have been trying to encourage more with my words, show more affection these past few days and I think it has really helped us. I am being more intentional this week at work-sometimes I just want to be at home with Cale, but that is not the reality I am in-how can I be intentional at work-how can I love on those in my office and show them Christ's love, how can I do my work to the best of my ability and be positive about it, not complain and be thankful I have a job. You can be intentional in everything in life. I need to be more intentional in my walk with God-make prayer and reading the Bible a priority (I am not there yet to be honest). How can you be intentional in what you do with your life today?
