I’m not sure why I chose this photo, but I love it! My family. I guess it takes me back to our last vacation all together. Lots of laughter, love, adventure, and time together. I live for times like these.
What do you live for?
You may have heard people say that they live for:
- The weekend
- My man
- My children
- My family
- Huntin’ and fishin’
- Vacation
- Dancing under the starry lights
- Bible study time
- Sunsets on the beach
- Time alone with God
Oh, maybe that’s part of my list. (*wink*wink*)
Regardless of how your list may look, we need to remember the main reason why we live.
He died for everyone so that those who receive his new life will no longer live for themselves. Instead, they will live for Christ, who died and was raised for them. 2 Corinthians 5:15
For when we live our life for Christ, we live life more abundantly. And you know what? When we live for Him, He knows the desires of our hearts (earthly and eternally) and those moments on our “Live For” list jut may be part of our life while here on earth.
Do this for yourself:
“‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.” 38 This is the first and most important command. Matthew 22:37-38
When you love God above everything else, first of all you have your priorities right, and secondly you will find life more enjoyable and satisfying.
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:33
If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord. Romans 14:8
LIVE FOR GOD! And LIVE LIFE TO ITS FULLEST!
I pray that you will enjoy soaking up The Son every moment of each day. –Stephanie
