DIRECTED ATTENTION

Wow I cannot believe that I haven't shared anything with guys since April 2017!  What a shame?  Please forgive me y'all. I haven't forgotten about you. I was just so into to work last year that I barely had time for myself and God. I put way too much energy into work that I couldn't make time for anything else that's important to me. Pretty sad right?

2018  I am shifting my focus all the wayyyyy  up to the Lord Almighty! And I am going to make sure that nothing comes in between my God and I, because gurrrrl let me tell you! You can have EVERYTHING in this world but if you don't have God, you have NOTHING! I am telling you this because I experienced this in 2017. Even though I had God in my heart all the time and I listened to Christian songs every now and then and watched sermons on YouTube and went to church once every month in 2017, the fact that I didn't  make God and my relationship with Him a priority made me feel empty inside. It made me feel lost even though on the physical I had no reason to feel empty and lost.

 Imagine trying to see the Empire State Building(ESB) in New York with binoculars.  There are so many other  buildings around it that you could miss it even though it is currently the tallest building in the NY. Just because you have it in your head to see ESB if you do not intentionally focus your binoculars on ESB you will see everything else but ESB. You have been given the resources to see it but you will be lost if you do not focus on the right thing. Dictionary.com defines focus as a central point of attraction, attention or activity. Webster dictionary defines focus as a directed attention. Intentionally directing your attention to something that interests you. So if you love God and want Him to show up in your life then you have to intentionally shift your focus on Him!

2018 I want to challenge you to be intentional about your walk with God. Intentionally set time apart to speak to God, to pray to God, to read God's word... Intentionally set time apart to spend time with God. Don't wait until you are in trouble. Don't wait till you desperately need something. If you focus on God you will clearly see His plans for you and where He is trying to take you.

On that note I want to wish you all a happy New Year!🎉 I pray that you see God's hands and hear His voice His in this season. Love you all 😗
