Let’s face it, insect bites are annoying. But just how much attention do, or will we give to them?
If we ever do have an insect bite, then what needs to be done, needs to be done. If it needs to be cleaned, then clean it. If it needs some kind of insect cream, then apply it.
But, when all that needs to be done, is done, can we then sometimes, over do the attention?
Look at what’s happened to me and what I have to deal with?
Can we change our focus to, look at what we have overcome. ??
Or even, that’s so small, I won’t let it take up my time and energy, away from what really matters! ???
Some of our problems or issues in life, can they be like an insect bite?
Can we give them more attention than we ought to?
If we are directed to, by our Heavenly Father, then shouldn’t we try to change our focus?
To try to obtain a right perspective?
If something is just an insect bite, then can we view and treat it as such?
Someone shared a picture at church this week. It was…
Sometimes we can have a magnifying glass, but we can be focusing it on the wrong things.
We can end up magnifying our problems, so that we can then make them larger than they actually are.
Can we try to change the thing that we are focusing on?
Could we try to change our focus onto Our Lord God, instead of our problems?
If we can magnify Our Lord God, then will we gain a better perspective?
Will we then even start to see, a solution, as we focus on, Our Lord God Almighty?
Matthew 6:25-34
Do Not Worry
25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?
28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
