Focus

One has to watch where one's focus is whether you are dealing with geopolitical issues, playing baseball or traveling your faith journey.

I personally think we should be more concerned with humanitarian affairs here and in Japan rather than a no-fly zone or airstrikes in Libya. We should not waste time, treasure, or lives in another potential bog down situation. That neck of the woods too often resents any efforts on our part to stabilize the region so why would this be any different? Just a sidenote.

Focus in one's faith journey means keeping your eyes on Jesus. Doing this will help you in facing the storms of life. When you don't, things will appear too big to handle. You forget that the same power that raised HIM from the dead is available to you.

When you find yourself in such a situation, take a moment to breathe. Remember that you are covered by the blood of Jesus and sealed by HIS Spirit. Claim the promises of GOD. Here's a couple I like to remember. We are more than conquerors through HIM who loved us(Romans 8:37). If GOD be for us who can stand against us(Romans 8:31). So recall who you you serve, fix your eyes back on the one who conquered Death and go forth.

May GOD bless and keep you,
