Living intentionally


Cool Hand Luke is a pretty great band.
Definitely worth checking out.
Their lyrics have a lot of depth.
It's refreshing and challenging.
Recently, I rediscovered how much I enjoyed them.
I was making a mix cd for my friend Emily.. and couldn't help but remember the time I saw them in concert in Lincoln, IL.
I remember the singer sharing this scripture verse and it just really impacted me.
I was going to ISU at the time and used this verse as a backbone for the worship team I led the next year.
"I said to the Lord, 'You are my Lord; apart from You I have no good thing.'"
- Psalm 16:2
Whenever I hear a song of theirs, I can't help but be reminded of this verse.
Music has that great attribute.
It brings back a memory a lot of the time. :)
When God is really the only thing good to us, we can't help but desire to be filled with more of Him.
It's pretty basic.
And yet... so many times... we forget that truth, or we get distracted.
We begin to focus on others or ourselves.
I feel like God is doing so much in my life.... and I can't help but be excited.
I'm living intentionally.
Again.
