STAYING FOCUSED IN AN UN-FOCUSED WORLD!



Chaos seems to be abounding everywhere. Fear and uncertainty are all around us. What to do? Stay focused with what the Lord has called you to do!

Every century has had turmoil and seemingly insurmountable obstacles. With today’s technology we are made instantly aware of what is happening all around the world. This overload of information can make even the most stalwart of us feel overwhelmed.

A suggestion-stop the information overload! How much news can each of us handle and how much do we want to know anyways? Balance is needed more than ever.

What has God put in your path to do? Focus on that. A stay at home Mom? Business person? Working a 9 to 5 job? Life is made up of mundane activities, at times, but that is the stuff that life is made of.

In Ecclesiastes, the Word tells us that for a man to enjoy his work in his lifetime, this is a blessing. We tend to live in the past or the future. We all need to learn to live in the present and enjoy life one day at a time.

Focus on your family, spouse, career, neighbors, church -activities-the regular stuff that life is made of. Stay focused on your life and your purpose.

This will not only keep you focused on what is important but you will develop a peace in your life knowing that what you are accomplishing is meaningful in God’s eyes.

Hello Jacques,

It is so important to stay focused. We can easily get off track and not know how to get back on track if we do not stay focused on the Lord. Thank you for the great post. Have a good day.

I have just found your blog.
This post is so timely. So much so that I thought it should be placed in a permanent spot.
I had been reading so many blogs before happening on your site. It was so refreshing. Just seeing that you had mentioned the Lord was comforting. Thank You
