It is the third day of Advent and the question is are we becoming more intentional or already losing focus? After all our world teaches us to always be looking for the newest thing to satisfy our desires. Do we feel we must multi-task because it is expected or do we have the courage to slow down and listen?
Focus is something that has always been extra hard for me even before the Internet and smart phones became the order of the day. I tend to swing between the two extremes of being hyper-focused to the point of not being aware of anything else or so unfocused that I am not paying close attention to anything to the point at times of putting myself in harm's way. Focus does not mean don't watch but rather choose what you are going to pay attention to. Be intentional with your focus.
How will you offer God your focus today? How will you be intentional about Advent rather than jumping ahead to Christmas? Scriptures tells not to be afraid or be in hurry or to worry but rather to seek and trust.
