Distractions

LORD, the distractions are so insistent.

Sometimes loud.

Sometimes like a pesky mosquito.

Sometimes clear – and often in the mists of life.

Sometimes they poke me hard and actually hurt.

Sometimes they simply call to me – tugging at my mind and heart.

How do I put aside all these thoughts and distractions when I sit with YOU?

Is that an unreasonable thought to do that?

LORD, I choose YOU . . . above and over all distractions.

But there are times when it seems YOU are sending the distractions – so that I don’t get bogged down in some emotion or thought.

LORD, I am beyond Blessed when YOU meet with me in these times.

Teach me how to open wide my heart and mind to receive YOU more and more – even with the distractions.

: Psalm 27:8 – You have said, “Seek My Face.” My heart says to You, “Your Face, Lord, do I seek.”

• YOUR Face, LORD, do I seek . . .

: John 15:11 – These things I have spoken to you, that My Joy may be in you, and that your Joy may be full.

• Thank YOU GOD . . . oh that YOUR Joy will be in me today.

: I Corinthians 13:12 – For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to Face. Now I know in part, then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known.

• LORD, I look forward to that day with YOU . . . to see clearly. Not in a hurry though 😉
