The Potential Of Today

Christianity involves being alert to the hurts and heartaches of the people about us. A thoughtful word of encouragement, a sincere word of concern, or a moment or two of our time can do a great deal in helping another person. The assurance that someone cares has a great potential in extending strength to a fellow traveler on the road of life.
Here is some food for thought: An interesting phrase that I have come across in the past couple of months is “intentional living.” This refers to having a purpose that impacts every area of our lives. It is approaching and living each moment in light of the purpose of our lives. Indeed, life should never be viewed or approached as merely something that “just happens.”
Let's more often remember these words of Jesus, “I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly” (John 10:10).
