What does this look like in real life? Our children have meaningful, stabilizing relationships with us that help them flourish. My mother passed away right before Christmas 2021. While they knew she was in heaven, this was their first experience of losing a close family member. The spiritual disciplines are all about habits. To support spiritual habits, we need to cultivate practical habits as well. For example, if we want to start our days focused on what Christ has done for us, the night before, we need to go to bed at a decent time, set a Bible in a place that is conducive to reading and praying, have a pen and journal ready for notes, and have our prayer plan organized and ready to go.
By focusing on purpose-driven flourishing, grounded in our identity in Christ through habits will focus us on an adventurous life lived for the One who calls us. We perform for an audience of One. When He looks at us, He sees His Son who covered our sins with His perfect life and sacrifice. We’re beloved, and John 10:3 tells us He calls us by name.Funerals bring focus. My mom’s and my students’ funerals have done this for me.
