Faith is determined by our focus.

Where’s your focus today? Is your mind centered on your problems; the daily tasks you endure and dread?

Are you consumed with worry on how you’ll make ends meet or anxious about the upcoming doctor’s appointment?

Colossians 3:2 - “Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.”

Distraction is the opposite of focus. As Christians, we are constantly tempted to pull away from a consistent focus on Christ.

It’s a disciplined lifestyle. We must purposely choose to see every blessing and struggle through the lens of Christ.

It’s hard not to notice a disciplined Christian. Their attitude and overall outlook on life is different. They make an intentional investment of focusing on God instead of their circumstances.

Every day there are different paths for us to take. It’s our responsibility to choose the right thing, even if it brings pain.

I have to deliberately study God’s word (Bible) daily. This aligns my life and my focus to God’s will for me.

Our focus should and always remain grounded in faith that God is in control.

Do you trust God with today? Are you focused on Him fully? Is your faith in God and not your circumstances?

Stay focused on righteousness!

Where’s your faith? What’s your focus?
