Scripture: Luke 21:34
“Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you unexpectedly like a trap.
Observation: Don’t let day-to-day life on earth bring you down and cause you to lose focus on the Lord’s coming.
Application: I must keep my focus on the Lord and his blessings and instruction so that I do not get weighed down by unimportant things.
Prayer: Lord, so often I feel pulled in too many directions and know my focus cannot be where you would want it to be. I make choices that seem like good ones at the time, but then sometimes feel weighed down by the obligations which come with the choices.
Please help me to remember that my to-do list is my own. It is filled with choices I make.
Guide me in keeping my focus on you when it comes to filling my to-do list and keep me focused on you in evaluating and carrying it out, as well.
I want my life to be about you. I do not want to be weighed down by worldly things. Keep my focus where you want it to be, not where my mind and heart may wander.
Thank you, Lord.
PS: If you are joining me in praying for your husband daily at Noon, today we are praying about his fears.
