Focus!

Today, on what are you focusing? Some big project on which you’ve been working? Marital problems with which you’ve been dealing? Parenting struggles? What’s your focus? Will it be problems, or will you focus on God’s blessings and on what He wants for your life? Every moment is a chance to think of and celebrate God’s blessings in life, but we often turn our moments into time spent dwelling on the negatives of life. Instead of dwelling on the bad times, why not take a moment (right now) to thank God for what you’ve been given? Why not focus on the joys with which God has blessed you? Have you thanked Him for the blessing of being His child? For your spouse? For your children? For your grandchildren? “Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!” (Philippians 4:4 NKJV).
