We are called to live fully in the Kingdom of God and as fully as possible here and now - not just in the hereafter.  That's what our intentions should be.  As we rely upon Jesus, the vision of life in the Kingdom makes it possible for us to intend to live in the Kingdom as He did.  We can actually decide to do it.  We intend to live in the Kingdom of God by intending to obey the precise example and teachings of Jesus.  He draws us but we make the decision to follow.
