“Focus on what Jesus has for you, not what you’re asked to give up.” If we focus on what we’re giving up, our minds will always remember how good that thing made us feel. What the flesh leaves out, though, is how thinking, saying or doing that thing makes us feel in the long run.
And yet, we as humans, we have a tendency to focus on what the Lord is asking us to give up, which only makes life change so hard. Why? We become what we focus on and what we focus on only gets bigger.
Let what Jesus wants to give you get bigger and bigger in your mind so you can become what Jesus wants to put into your life. The good stuff Jesus offers is so much better for us; so stay focused on it!
