Focus

September, 2017

What’s your focus? Is it just surviving the day and hoping that the weekend comes as quickly as possible? A lot of the time it has been for me, all most 100% of the time, but God has been challenging me to look at my day differently. It’s hard to, when there is opposition against you everyday but He has shown me the bigger picture and continues to remind me as He graces me to get through each problem that arises. Right now focus is the key to not only surviving but thriving even at times where we would rather be hiding away. My focus remains to show the love of God to everyone, to love others as I love myself and that means to love myself and remind myself that I belong to God. I remind myself of the promise that He has a great future planned for all of us individually and that this little section of my life is just another piece to add to a collection of testimonies. I remind myself of His word, my worth and who He says I am. If your are struggling with this, just for a moment consider these things and read the scriptures below. You are blessed and highly favoured of the Lord, our saviour Jesus Christ.
