Message Series
This year
we are learning how to keep our focus on the
Lord in the areas of our faith, finances,
family, failures, and future. When we are
having physical difficulties, we focus on
our health problems. When we are having trouble
financially, we focus on our money (or lack
of it as may be the case). When relationships
are going south, we often focus on our loneliness.
While those are the norms of our culture,
God has called us to "not conform any
longer to the pattern of this world, but be
transformed by the renewing of your mind."
(Romans 12:2)
We need a Biblical
focus. We desire a Christian worldview. God
wants our focus to be on him. In the midst
of whatever trouble we may find ourselves;
physical, financial, relational or anything
else, God wants us to keep our focus on Him.
When we do so, we realize that God is sovereign
over every problem we encounter. Our challenge
is to "seek first the kingdom of God
and his righteousness" (Matthew 6:33).
When we do that, God takes care of us in every
way.
Our current message
series asks the question, "Where is your
focus?" Currently we are examining how
to stay focused on the Lord in our finances.
Next month we will look at how to stay focused
in our family relationships. We hope you will
be blessed as we study God's Word together
and learn how to keep our focus on Him in
an everchanging world. When we do not focus
on the Lord, our vision in the rest of life
is blurred. When our focus is on Jesus, we
see clearly in every aspect of our lives.
Where is your focus?
