Are you easily distracted? I know with me, it takes very little to lose focus. Sometimes just having someone else talking in another conversation near to where I am can totally be distracting. I have to consciously focus on the conversation I am involved in. What is the best way to keep focused? Sometimes it means putting your focus directly on what you need to concentrate on. When it comes to focusing on God, the Bible tells us to look at Him, to listen to Him, and pay attention to His Word. When we do that we can keep our focus right. You can try that as an experiment and see how it really works. Put something on the table, about the size of a domino, and then focus just on it. In a short period of time, everything else around will get blurry, but you will see the object perfectly. When we keep our eyes on Jesus, things around us don’t get blurry, but they don’t have the hold on us that they used to. That is a good thing. We don’t have to let circumstances or situations keep us from focusing on God and his good plan for our lives. In the midst of any situation, we can keep our heart centered on God, and operate in the joy of the Lord, and praise Him through any storm or situation that comes against us. So keep your focus! Don’t lose sight of Jesus.
