Sisters, you have the power to choose every day where you will focus your attention. Will you focus all of your time and energy on social media? The constant stories about government corruption? Stories about nonstop tragedies? The rising price of milk, eggs, and gas? Is your television on the news channel twenty-four hours a day? It’s hard to even focus when you are constantly being bombarded with bad news all day long. Or maybe you are focused on that special someone, your family, or even your place of employment.
We can often become distracted by the circumstances around us, especially when the news is distressing. That’s why we need to be sustained daily. In spite of everything going on, God promised to keep us in perfect peace when we keep our minds on Him. (Isaiah 26:3)
Take a moment to answer these few questions:
- Who sustains you?
- What do you seek from God every single day?
- What have you been focusing on today?
