Hebrews 12:2: Focus

Hebrews 12:2 (NIV) states:

2 Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

The verse of the day for today at one of my favorite websites, http://www.biblestudytools.com/, is Hebrew 12:2. It got me thinking.

I think most of the issues we have in life, and regarding keeping a loyal faith, lie in the issue of our focus.

Where do we put our attention? What do we think about? What is our top goal? Why do we live? Why do we do the things we do? Who are we? Where do we hope to be in 5 years? 10? How do we live? When do we focus on what is most important? How often do we?

Are the answers to these questions seeped in God, faith, and the Word--or in something else? Are we God and Word focused? Or are we world and action focused?

Take some time to ponder what your true answers are to all of the questions above.

Then, take some time to ponder what your answers should really be.

Pray to God today about this.
