Losing Focus

I sometimes feel discouraged these days. The ways of the world bearing down on every avenue of humanity. By that I mean the world that we as Christians are not to be a part. “Be in the world but not of the world”.

The discouragement coming more from professing Christians continuing to seek the world. People everywhere always seem to be searching and seeking for more and different. There seems to be no contentment anywhere. Is there no real belief and trust in God. Do we not believe that ALL things are in His control? Have hearts and eyes been taken off the ultimate goal of life. which is that we are here on this earth for the purpose of bringing God glory. So would it be so bold as to state that many so-called believers are not truly seeking to honor God with their lives, but instead to please their own fleshly desires. In our own selfish thinking that if only things were different, if only I was somewhere else, if only this, if only that, if only,. etc., etc….. The grass always seems greener on the other side. Do we not truly trust God in His knowing what is best for each of us. We are all separate individuals with separate pathways ordained by God. Stop giving into the draw of the world’s deceptions and things it is offering.

Maybe we need to be reminded to stop chasing after things that only satisfy the flesh and refocus our eyes on Christ and on the true purpose of our life on this earth. Stop making mockery of the statement that we Trust In God and His control in our life. He has purpose and reason for our circumstances.

I remember a song from childhood about being grumbly hateful or humbly grateful, which one are you?

Thank you for listening……

May we all continue to seek and serve,
