Are any of you prone to getting distracted? In today’s world, there is no end to the things that cause distractions–it seems like literally everything in life is competing for our attention, right? 

Well, believe it or not, this seems to happen to Paul in our scripture text for the morning. He is motivated to pray, but he quickly goes off on a tangent before he gets around to actually praying.

But how awesome is it that even something that seems like a detour or a digression, even with this, our God is able. Praise God–He is able to take a tangent, a rabbit trail and reveal to us timeless truths!
