This week my daughter made an appointment with the eye doctor. For whatever reason, she can not see as good as she used to. It may be that a lens is bad, that her eyes have gradually gotten worse, or something else. In either case, she has lost focus. Recognizing that, she determined she needed help to get things back in focus.
As I thought of that, it reminded me of people who have lost focus on specific areas of their lives. Maybe a marriage, a personal relationship, a spiritual walk, finances, career, and maybe life in general. Like my daughter above, something(s) shows that you have lost focus.
Focus helps you succeed. In your marriage, focus means you are string to meet the needs of your spouse and that builds a strong, close relationship. In your spiritual walk, you tend to lose focus on who God is and what He is in your life and you become more self-centered and doomed to experience pain. In your finances, things begin to spin out of control and you feel there is no hope of turning things around.
Fortunately, there is hope. You need to get things back in the right focus. Focus brings intensity and results. When we focus we see what is important and make the necessary changes to get things back on track,
What is out of focus for you and, more importantly, what are you doing to get things back in focus and on track?
