Focusing on God
Why
is it difficult
to
fix our Thoughts on God,
to
being aware of God,
to
willfully put our Thoughts on God
to
draw our Thoughts back to Him as often as they wander.
We
may enjoy the things around us that spoke of God’s majesty and the beauty that
God created. We are also thankful for the opportunity to enjoy time with our
loved ones. Yet our Thoughts are not singularly set on God.
It
was not until the way become very difficult that our attention became focused
on God. As our focus had narrowed in, no energy was spent on wandering Thoughts, but instead God completely filled
our mind. God alone was the centre, the point of convergence of all our
reflection.
Let
us ask God to use times of intense experience to teach me how fully and acutely
we can be aware of His presence.
Hebrews
12:2
Let
us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith
