Intentional Living - Drema Thompson - Bog

Through God's grace, we are extended a time to nurture and grow our relationship with Him as the cornerstone of our very existence-an existence in which our faith is challenged and increased to work in our favor. But what many of us fail to realize is that whatever He has been placing in our view, thoughts, and spirit is actually a calling upon our lives. But in order to cultivate and activate what God has placed within, we must take intentional action. In Intentional Living by Dr. Drema Thompson, Thompson shares a collection of original poetry and hand-picked pieces of scripture. This anthology of poetry is intended to inspire deep consideration for spiritual growth for any and all with a measure of faith. Through each poem, Thompson challenges readers to engage in mindful reflection to center oneself despite the everyday experiences of life and the continuum of emotions that occur. This collection of I AM writings is being shared to remind many and declare to others that there is a purpose to this life, even when it seems that this existence is too overwhelming. There is a means of escape from the struggles of this world that has been delivered to us by Christ, even when it appears as if there is no open door. To cultivate your purpose, you must focus on mindful concentrations to identify, explore, and experience works that are intended to speak to your spiritual growth in God. It is Thompson's prayer that a mustard seed treasure will be revealed through this Intentional Living collection for those who seek a glimpse of who they are in, can become with, and their value to Christ.
