Intention!

As the evening settles and the world grows still, let us turn inward and ask ourselves this simple question: Did I live today with intention?

Wayne Dyer once said, “Our intention creates our reality.” Like a gentle breeze guiding the sail, intention steers the course of our lives. But it is not enough to drift—we must set the sail, open our hearts, and choose the direction. Celebrate the self by singing the songs of your own making, and to be unapologetically present in the miracle of now.

Look around and notice how all of nature lives with purpose. The rivers carve valleys with tireless resolve; the trees reach skyward, never doubting their growth and the wind blows wherever it wants to go. What would happen if we, too, embraced such quiet determination—if every step we took was toward something meaningful?

The secret of getting ahead is getting started. Intention requires action, not perfection. It’s about showing up, fumbling forward, and laughing at ourselves all throughout the journey of life.

Live today like it matters, because it does. Every thought you think, every word you speak, every act of kindness you offer—they ripple outward, touching lives you may never know.

So tonight, as your day winds down, be sure to set an intention for tomorrow. Let it be honest, let it be bold, and let it be yours. For a life lived with intention is a life worth living.

Rest well my friend and rise with purpose.

Made For Mending!

You know, life can be a lot like my favorite pair of jeans. Over time, they pick up a few tears, a few stains, and maybe even a patch or two. But you don’t toss ’em out; you mend ’em. That’s what 2 Corinthians 5:18 reminds us—God’s in the mending business.

Paul tells us that through Christ, God has reconciled us to Himself and handed us the ministry of reconciliation. In plain talk, that means God patched up the tear between heaven and earth when Jesus went to the cross. And now, He’s given us the needle and thread to help mend the broken places in this world.

Now, I know what you’re thinking—”I’m no tailor.” But the truth is, reconciliation doesn’t take a degree; it takes a heart willing to listen, forgive, and build bridges instead of walls. Maybe it’s an old friend you haven’t spoken to in years or a family member where words turned to silence. God’s asking us to pick up the thread and start sewing.

So, don’t be afraid of the work. The Master Tailor is with you, showing you how to make things whole again. Let’s be the kind of people who don’t just notice the tears in the fabric of life but do something about it. That’s what we were made for—mending. And when you do, you’ll see that God’s grace makes the stitches stronger than the original fabric ever was.

Let’s get to mending, y’all. The world needs it.
