Sweet friends, the Lord has laid it on my heart that we need a bit of accountability on this Living Intentionally Together journey. Our first month of 2010 is over, like a vapor, it vanished before our eyes. If we don't pause and take note of where we've been, what we've learned, and where we're heading, we'll find ourselves facing 2011 right where we started 2010 -- hopeful and determined, but potentially disappointed and discourage for having the past year whip by without our intentional participation in the Kingdom of God.
Let's live differently this year!!!
Instead of starting off like gang-busters only to repent at year end, let's pause before the Lord and hear from Him now. Let's invest a little extra time in our Living Intentionally journey by doing the following between now and March 1st...

May we live intentionally together...

Instead of starting off like gang-busters only to repent at year end, let's pause before the Lord and hear from Him now. Let's invest a little extra time in our Living Intentionally journey by doing the following between now and March 1st...
- Spend time reviewing our original Living Intentionally Together post and/or commitments.
- Spend time in prayer:
- Confess before the Lord anything He brings to mind.
- Praise God for who He is, as we consider His abounding love and extravagant grace.
- Ask the Lord to be the focus of our heart, mind, and soul as we seek to live intentionally for His glory.
- Confess before the Lord anything He brings to mind.
- Write a post about what we have learned as a result of spending this time with the Lord and then come back to leave a link below.

How important accountability is for me! Thank you for posting and having us link up and follow through on our commitment to live Intentionally in 2010. I really appreciate and need this.
I will probably link up on Monday so I will be back. Much has happened to me since the beginning of this year and I want to share some of the lessons I've learned going through a storm.
Love you,
Debbie
I am new to the site Elisa, but so much has happened since the beginning of the year that I have to write this down and then share!
I must say thank you for allowing the Lord to use you and bring others to see the Lord in such a simple manner.
Blessings,
Maria
Since the first of the year I have pressed in towards a life of intention. The challenges of these posts and others, has pushed me into a place of introspective writing. Questions for God, what do you want for me now? The season of rest I am in is good, it is preparing me for something else. I wait with anticipation to see what God has in store.
Accountability, sisterhood, walking together as women in the Lord, may we grow and share together as the year moves forward. Thank you for the wonderful encouragement.
Thanks Lisa. I really appreciate what you are doing with your blog. It is uplifting to my soul. We travel working with churches, and it is not always easy to connect with the ladies and have that accountability. I am glad for the blogging world, and your blog especially.
God Bless!
