Keep Your Eye on the Ball

Our fun-loving' grandgirl

"Summing it all up, friends, I'd say you'll do best by filling your minds [your focus]... on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious - the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse." (Phil. 4:8 The Message)

Toddlergrands' favorite movie is Chicken Little. When the story begins, Chicken Little is terrible at playing baseball but eventually learns to keep his eye on the ball and masters the game.

At 21 Days of Prayer this morning, Pastor Jimmy Bowers said, "An unfocused mind can break your faith. Make it your habit to focus on things that are true and worthy of praise."

Keep your eyes on Jesus, beloved, not your worries. Master the game of life by "...fitting every loose thought and emotion and impulse into the structure of life shaped by Christ." (2 Cor. 10:5 The Message)

"Improved focus will increase your faith." ~ Jimmy Bowers
