It's easy to get wrapped up in the cares of this life, daily tasks, worries, or fears. It is very easy to take our focus off God and place it on ourselves. Maybe for you that means you are following the world or maybe it means you are so wrapped up being busy with responsibilities you don't make time for the Lord. It is very important that we don't lose focus on what is important. Our responsibilities will always be there, but we need to remember God in them and do them to serve and honor God. Focusing on ourselves will lead to fear, anxiety, and overwhelm. When we stop and truly focus on God and actively seek him, we will be filled with peace, hope, joy, and love beyond measure. God is our source of life without him we have nothing.
Prayer:
We love you Lord. Help us to surrender our life, pick up our cross and follow you everyday. Help us to be disciplined in our walk with you. Fill our hearts with a deep desire for you God. Overflow us with your love, peace and joy, in Jesus name we pray Amen.
Verse:
For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. Romans 8:6 ESV
