Jesus answered him, “It is written, ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve only him.’”
(Luke 4.8 NRSV)
A young woman asks her father a question about her homework. But he's at the computer, working on a letter. And the television is on, shouting the world news. And two other children are busy with a noisy fight.

Suddenly Dad realizes he can't concentrate! He has to pause. He has to tune out the other messages. And he has to focus his attention on the one who came to him for help. Sound familiar?! And so it is with our lives before God. Are you ready to worship God right now?! Do you have a sense of his presence?! Could you lead another person to Christ?! Can you find him for yourself?!

Loving God, help me to keep my focus on you. Amen.
