Rethinking my focus...

This morning Jakson and I slept in a bit. He woke up at 6 and then we fell back asleep about 6:45 and slept until 9:45...which with then having to feed him, feed myself, and drink my morning coffee, didn't leave much time to get to the gym before childcare was over.

So I did what I should do every morning when I wake up~ my quiet time with the Lord. I am reading Beth Moore's, Whispers of Hope. It is an awesome book. It has some reading for you to do, then she talks about the reading, and then it has places for you to write your thoughts and prayers for the day. (Just a little plug if you are looking for a good little devotional book)

This morning was about rethinking our focus. I know that I can get so caught up in the day to day activities that I forget where my focus should really be. It should be on Him. It should be on the one that this life is really about.

Matthew 6:33-34 says, but seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things will be added to you. Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

If we seek God in all we do, he will direct us and help us discern his priorities through the work of the Holy Spirit. I get so caught up in worrying about every petty little thing. No more!! I have to quit that. Our heavenly father is in control!

Just a little thought for the day :) gotta go, little man is hungry!

I hope you all have a wonderful day!
