What in the World?

Today we'll start looking at the first of our three questions. What do I need to focus on? You've probably heard this before. If you aim at nothing you'll hit it every time! Life is about setting our sights on something bigger than ourselves. We need to recognize that there is a God who loves us so much He was willing to die on the cross to forgive our sins. Our heart, devotion, and life should always be directed at bringing Him glory.

The problem with that is the world tries to put other things in our path to take our attention away from God. Jesus knows we have a problem with focus.

Matthew 6:24No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.

Luke 16:13 “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.”

If you have accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior you are a new being. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! - 2 Corinthians 5:17

Have you made that decision in your life?

Be wise today and always - always serve Jesus.
