FOCUS
Matthew 18:3 …and he said, Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
It was a busy day, an ordinary day, a day like all the others…I had my mind on a million things except one…meanwhile, Jenna was sitting in the back of the van observing, reflecting, and taking in all the sights and sounds. All at once she said, “LOOK”, God is reminding us that he is watching over us! I looked up and a clearly defined cross was present in the sky. A reminder of God’s presence but also a reminder of how quickly we can lose focus when so many other things are present and pressing. A wonderful reminder that when we focus on the cross and when we focus on God’s presence the things that surround us…the busyness, the demands, the pressure… no longer weigh us down because God’s presence and assurance is so powerful and perfect we are left in awe of his Greatness.
