Find hope, courage, and strength to make it through the day.
Are you struggling with your focus? This year has certainly been a little crazy and I admit there are many days that I struggle to stay on target! What are you focused on?
For example, I know better but I still catch myself focusing on the breaking news instead of the good news. I confess it is so easy to get off track because of so many distractions.
If you are like me, you have notifications or alerts set on your phone whenever there is breaking news. I might be in the middle of something important but stop to check my phone. My focus is completely lost!
We tend to get distracted by things that don’t really matter. Focus is not always 2020. Therefore, I have to work on my priorities if I’m going to expect to receive God’s resources. I struggle with my focus!
Matthew 6:33 states, “But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”
This week has been a busy one! So many things are going on right now. Just when you think things could not get any worse. Surprise! So, who are you listening to?
I am not here to share my opinion on politics. However, I am going to follow up with my answer to it all, Pray!
Have you ever heard the saying, “They say!” Who are “they and what makes them the expert?” What makes them trustworthy?
When you have a decision to make do you call a friend for advice or ask God?
Friends, we have someone to go to when we are feeling afraid, anxious, sad, frustrated, or even mad. God is always there and let me tell you, He is the good news!
You might be feeling alone or even afraid! God wants you to know that we don’t have to fear. He is in control!
John 16:33 states, “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world, you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
Jesus tells us that we will have trouble in this world, but we can find peace in Him. So, why not go to Him!
So, I ask again, “Who are you listening to?”

Many times, we get angry with ourselves, but it appears that we are angry with everyone else. For example, I used to get angry if my house wasn’t clean before I left for work. The more I tried to have everything neat and tidy the worse it got! Needless to say, my boys were never interested in cleaning the house. So, I would take it upon myself to clean and clean and clean! No matter how hard I tried to make my house perfect, the more frustrated I got! My life was out of control. I was feeling insecure.
Maybe we try to control things in our lives because we are insecure. We want to be the perfect wife, mom, employee, etc. and when we aren’t, we become more and more insecure.
Repeat after me: Nobody is perfect! (Only Jesus)
You are not alone! Even Peter was so insecure, he denied three times that he was even with Jesus.
First, to get rid of our insecurities, admit that we have a problem and allow God to deliver us from these. God offers us security in Him!
It is not God’s will for us to be insecure. God loves us! No matter what we do, He still loves us!
“He drew me up from the pit of destruction, out of the miry bog, and set my feet upon a rock, making my steps secure.” Psalm 40:2
