? It’s time to change our focus ?

During this worldwide pandemic, everyone is talking about avoiding the virus at all costs. Businesses, sports arenas, schools, theatres and even churches have been shut down. We sanitize our hands throughout the day and wear masks in public. 

The virus has cost millions of jobs and tens of thousands of deaths. It is truly a life-changing event. I was praying about the emotional and financial toll it has had on our society, and I came to an interesting observation: we were focusing on avoiding and surviving instead of adding and growing.

The Apostle Paul once said, “What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ” (Philippians 3:8, NIV).

Can you imagine being like Paul? He lost everything for Christ, but he was focused on GAIN. He was beaten, shipwrecked, falsely accused and rejected by his people and yet considered it all as dung compared to knowing Christ. Wow!

No matter what you are going through, no matter what you have lost, start looking for the increase. If you focus on avoiding, you’ll subtract; but if you’re looking to increase, you’ll add. Here are a few helpful tips to shift your perspective:

1. Position yourself for a huge comeback. Look for opportunities to build your business or to improve the situation at your work. 
2. Look for people who need help. Look to win souls for Christ. 
3. Look to improve your personal health through exercise and a healthy diet.
4. Look to the Word of God to find wisdom.
5. Look to the Holy Spirit for guidance.

It’s time to change our focus. I started to do these steps this week. What will you do to experience different results?

Will you declare this with me? “Lord, I’m going to focus on increasing health, wealth and happiness. I’m going to love others and spread the good news of Jesus!”

Destinations are more dependent on focus than on wishes and desire.

You will make it!

You’re a miracle.
