Focus on Jesus
“Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”—Luke 10:41–42 (NIV)
Are you an over-thinker? Instead of releasing your problems to God, do you agonize over solving them, convinced that if you could just figure it out, everything would work out? This exhausting exercise leaves us feeling spiritually empty. Instead, focus your energy on God.
Heavenly Father, sometimes I need help focusing on You and not my fears. Keep me obedient to You and help me trust Your will.

Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.—Colossians 3:13 (NIV)

For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.—Psalm 91:11 (NIV)
