Practiced Focus

Our minds travel in so many directions at one time that it is difficult to choose one into which we should pour our energy. And, even though there are times that focus occurs, there is still a plethora of distractions battling for our short attention spans. Discipline is needed, but the increments of that that we introduce into our lives must be obtainable and manageable, lest we find ourselves overwhelmed. Instant compliance to standards we set is nigh unto impossible. Best to view our growth in these areas as the processes they are, then strive, counting on divine guidance, to become closer in our obedience.
