Distraction

There is a mighty battle being raged and you can see the outcome of the battle with every life being lost to addiction, suicide, sex trafficking, senseless killings, these are the obvious outcomes of the battle. 

But there is also another  side of the outcome of the battle that is so sly. And this is distraction.

We have so many things at our fingertips to cause us to be distracted from our call, from our first love. 

These distractions can cause us to not reach out to those who are hurting around us, not study or pray as we should, not do what we know within God is telling us to do.

The distractions seem innocent at first but become habit forming and your distracted more and more rather it is watching  tv episodes, playing games, being to busy in life, or even work. Anything that causes you to put God second is a distraction.

After the habit forming your spiritual tank becomes empty, this tank becomes full by being in His presence rather it's listening and meditating on His word, or Praise music, which ever way you spend time with Him! 

When spiritual tank is empty you faith weakens then doubt is easily placed and the things of this world that use to never bother you before are now not so easy to turn down. 

Then you fall from Grace. All started with distraction! It's  a battle going on and the distraction is a sure way for the enemy to get you off track! 

So stay focused! Even if you slip as we all do just refocus again and even if that means you have to refocus 30 times or more a day that's ok! We are human! Just refocus 30 or more times a day! 

We are not alone in this battle Ever!! MP
