This week I attended the funeral of an 86 year-old-lady who lived her life to love Jesus and her family, and so many of the people she cared for attested to that. Everyone there received a program, and in it were excerpts from her journal, insights into a life well-lived. This was one of those insights that she practiced because the results were evidenced in her life~

8 Essentials to Be More Like Our Lord

1. Intimacy—Deepening our lives

2. Simplicity—Uncluttering our mind

3. Silence & Solitude—Slowing our pace

4. Surrender—Releasing our grip

5. Prayer—Calling out

6. Humility—Bowing down

7. Self-Control—Holding back

8. Sacrifice—Giving over

These words inspire me and provide a template for me to review each day as I seek to embrace more of God in my life. I pray it will help you too.
