Thoughts#2887

 Be attentive

So often we are focused only

on the things that we like,

on the things that we are good at doing, or

on the things that we are interested in accomplishing.

God wants us to use every piece of his spiritual armor. He wants us to be disciplined and grow in the areas of our spiritual weakness and the areas we do not necessarily find exciting or interesting. Our evil opponent is cunning and will try to attack us in the areas of our weakness and defenselessness. So let us not just commit to be attentive in the areas of our interest and strength, but also in those areas where we are not.

Ephesians 6:11

Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.
