Living A Purposeful Spiritual Life
Mark 12:31
1. The purpose of our relationship with God.
a. The Bible says . . .
You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength. The second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ Mark 12:30-31
You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had. Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to. Instead, he gave up his divine privileges; he took the humble position of a slave and was born as a human being. When he appeared in human form, he humbled himself in obedience to God and died a criminal’s death on a cross. Philippians 2:5-8

c. Disciplining our minds And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. Philippians 4:8 d. Our attitude . . .for I have learned how to be content with whatever I have. For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength. Philippians 4:11,13 e. Vision
3. God has an intended outcome
a. Have one!
