II Peter 1:5-7

For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness, and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love.

Songfilled Sundays

I went for a walk this morning. I looked down
and saw a dime. I started focusing on the ground
and looking for change. I ended up finding 2
pennies, too.

After walking and focusing on the ground for
awhile a thought came to me. By focusing on the
ground and searching for lost change I was missing
out on more important things. I focused so hard on
looking at the ground I couldn't hear the birds
singing or feel the gentle breeze blowing. I didn't
see the beautiful flowers and trees.

Sometimes we lose the focus we should have. We
forget to focus on God, on reading His Word, on
praying to Him and listening to the Spirit. We
get too focused on our busy schedules.

It's amazing how God can use things that happen
everyday to teach a lesson. What kind of lesson
has He taught you today? I'd be glad for you to
share.

You are so right. We do often miss God's lessons for our lives. I love reading your blog.
