Just A Short While Ago

Just a short while ago, and I really mean just a very few minutes, I knew what this blog was going to be about.

Now I don't. I seriously can't remember.

There have been a number of distractions this morning and I lost my focus on the topic that seemed to be so right.

I can remember how right it seemed. I can remember that I had been given a perfectly logical outline for it. I just can't remember the subject matter.

It is so easy for me to lose focus. It so easy for me to forget. I forget things all the time.

I have great intentions. I just forget to act on them.

Just as things have distracted me from my topic this morning, things come up that can, if I'm not very, very careful, take my focus off of Christ. And when my focus is on anything else, I'm headed for trouble.

Only when I'm fixed on Jesus is my guard set properly over my mouth.

Only when I'm fixed on Jesus is my determination strong to take every thought captive to His glory.

Only when I'm fixed on Jesus are my eyes not on me and what I think I need or don't have.

Only when I'm fixed on Jesus do I realize how very rich He has made me and how thankful I should be.

The truth is that I'm only happy and joyful when I'm fixed directly on Him as my All In All.

Have you been distracted from Him today? Perhaps this happened to me so that you could read this and become refocused on the Only One Who really matters.

Take a moment, re-focus, and continue the day honoring and glorifying Him.

He'll be pleased and you will be more fulfilled. I promise.

Please pray for revival. We need it so badly.

In His Love
Walter
