Focus on Christ

There is so much pain and suffering in the world.  Satan's attacking with a vengeance because he knows his time is short.  It is up to us to remain focused on the Lord, to remain close, and hide under the shadow of his wing. 

As we walk through life, we become loaded down with cares of this world.  We're betrayed by

 
family and friends. Jesus knows everything we are going through.  He holds, comfort, and guides us through the storms of life.  He healed those who were sick, not only spiritually, but physically, mentally, and emotionally.

He didn't heal and then send them on their way.  He taught them how to remain on the right track.  That was by leaning on him and trusting him to lead and guide them.  They were taught to focus on him., To come to him in times of despair.  So how do we focus on Jesus?

First, we must give our hearts and lives to Christ.  Repent of our sins and ask for forgiveness.  When we do this, sincerely, then there is a change in us.  Not only in our hearts but also in our lives.  Jesus died on the cross, where there is forgiveness for our sins.

There is a desire to read and learn from God's Word.  As we grow in Christ, our love for him becomes deeper than ever before.  The longer we serve Him, the deeper our love grows for him.
