Aww, just when I was about to close my laptop and get some sleep before Church in the morning, something tugged at my heart. I had just been looking at a blog on gratefulness and struck by how beautiful our lives are and how often we speed right past without noticing. Then I thought how important it is to be purposefully grateful. Why stop there though? Why not have a purpose to be purposeful. In all things.
Maybe it's the dawn of the new year calling or my own heart's cry to do some more growing this year. But as I think on it, I want to be purposeful this year. Purposeful in my faith, in my attitude, in my daily life, in my business and with my family.
There's a time for everything and some seasons are just that, seasons. They come for a time but never stay permanently. What if I purposefully listened to the lesson in each season? If I truly took the time to enjoy or grieve in a season?
I wonder how much would change in my life. I wonder if my spirits would remain at a cheerful height.
I don't know for certain, but I am more then willing to find out. More then willing to have a purpose to be purposeful, come what may in the following year.
God's got my hand and heart and if I purposefully follow close to His, He'll direct my path.
