Beloved, I do not consider that I have made it my own; but this one thing I do:
forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead.
(Philippians 3.13
NRSV)
Most of us make the mistake of trying to
do too many things. We are like that fabled cowboy who jumped on
his horse and rode off in all directions. St. Paul's life was
focused. His focus was "the prize of the high calling of God in
Christ Jesus." Everything he did in life was aimed in that
direction. That was how he had such impact upon his own time and
upon ours. In every walk of life successful people are focused
people. They know what it is they want. They know where they are
headed. Nothing deters them. All their thoughts and energies are
aimed in the direction of their dreams.
Dear God, help me to keep my focus on you. Amen.
