God is calling us to live a life focused on Christ. Focus is difficult with all the distractions we face. Children struggle to focus. Adults struggle as well. This tendency toward ADD and ADHD impacts Christians too. Many churches have lost focus but are not short on activity. They add activities in order to hopefully hit the mark when they have forgotten what the mark is.

Paul reminds us of the target in Philippians 3.

He wanted to be a Faithful Man.

He wanted to be a Focused Man.

He wanted to be a Finished Man.

He reminds us to forget our failures and successes and to lean toward the finish line. Stay faithful, focused and finish well.
