Stop Distraction - How to Know Jesus
Manage episode 407397339 series 3561319
Some distractions prevent us from needing God. Why is it important we purposefully focus on Jesus? What does stopping distraction actually look like in daily life? How do we stop distraction when everything vies for our attention? A prayer for thumbs. :-)
My Plank: DISTRACTION
Verses:
Luke 12
Matthew 18
Luke 15
Action Step: What things can you do to keep yourself from being distracted from purposefully placing more of God in your daily life? Notice ways how some distractions can be prevented but others cannot. God understands and knows your heart. Invite God to show you how to be less distracted in the time you have devoted to Him. Repent and Ask Him to break the mental stronghold of distraction in your mind. Ask Him to keep you focused on Him.
Today, spend time finding God.
Today, take a step in the direction of making one habit that allows you to purposefully stop distractions. And when you get distracted? Return. And when you get distracted? Return. And when you get distracted? Return. What other verses do you think should be used for this plank?
What is My Planks?
If I want to make BIG societal changes, where do I start? Well, it may sound cliche or naive, but the first step is to look at ourselves. Jesus told us we start with ourselves by removing the planks from our own eye before addressing the specks in the eyes of others.
So that’s what I’m doing here. I'm rebuilding myself after 10 years of rare disease. Welcome to My Planks. I'll share one of my planks each week. Every episode will end with an optional repentance minute, if that week’s plank was familiar to you too, you can join in.
Repentance is key. We can't just point out our planks, we need to repent to God, and get His help removing them. Supernatural help from God the Father is ALWAYS THE BEST DECISION.
Join me as we change the world by starting with ourselves.
