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)
He then asked, “And you—what are you saying about me? Who am I?” Peter gave the answer: “You are the Christ, the Messiah.”—Mark 8:29 (MSG)
The true foundation for your life is answering this question about Jesus and recognizing how your answer shapes your relationship with Him. Every day, your actions and words, your prayers reveal what you believe about His identity.
