Broaden the Focus

1/28/03 Our heavenly Father, we pray again for your blessing on this fellowship – remind us of your Grace and your gifts to each of us. Encourage us in our efforts to serve others – to increase our understanding of their needs – to broaden the focus of our lives – to forgive those we need to forgive and to remember your goodness is everlasting. Amen

I missed using this yesterday. As there is no 1/29 card…we will pretend.

Determining what “lens” we use to view world problems is very current. I like that Dad is shifting it a bit to “broadening the focus” of our lives. Where is the focus? What is most clear and rest blurry? How central are my issues? God, check my vision today.
