Are You Being Distracted By Life or Are You Keeping Your Focus On God In The Midst Of The Trials Of Life?

Are you allowing life to distract you?   Don't stop looking to God. It's easy to get distracted in life. Bills are a distraction. Sickness is a distraction. Family and friends can be a distraction. But you have to refuse to get distracted. 

When you are distracted, you are unable to concentrate because your mind is preoccupied.  To be preoccupied means to be obsessed, concerned, or absorbed by someone or something.    In other words,  you let someone or something inhabit and take residence in your heart and your mind.   We have to make sure that we don't allow anyone or anything to occupy the place in our heart and our mind that only God and His Word should be occupying. 

We have to understand that God is the author and the finisher of life.   He knows our beginning and He knows our end.   Because God knows, we can have faith and trust in whatever He is telling us to do.   Even when we don't understand the process, we have to trust and believe that God knows what He is doing and His plan of deliverance will come to pass in our lives.    

So don't be distracted by life.   Don't allow the worries and the cares of this world to cause you to lose your focus.   When you focus on something, it is the center of  your attention.   Keep your eyes on God.   Let the Father and His Word always be the focal point of your life.
