FRIDAY FOCUS!

Friday Focus, again!?
MORE OF THEE. LESS OF ME!
Pithy with a punch. A heart issue.
Easy to know in my head....harder to overflow from my heart & live out.
I must be a slow learner as refocusing is a daily, even hourly occurrence.
For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want but i do the very thing I hate. (Romans 7:15)
Be gone, self-centeredness! Self-pity stinks!
Today's New Morning Mercies (6/16) entry zeroes in on obstacles of our faith focus.
Self-focus sins that can permeate our actions:
  • Nasty retort
  • "Me-first pride"
  • flash of lust at the mall
  • addictions to little pleasures
  • impatience with a loved one
.....to name a few. I could lengthen the list as I wait for doctor to return my call....as if I'm his only patient.

O Lord may I refocus....and allow you to rescue me from me!
