How many times has Jesus tried to encounter us, yet we are caught up in the hustle and bustle of every day life? We can’t let distractions steal our focus. God often uses small trials to prepare us for bigger moments.

Like Peter stepping out of the boat, faith requires us to keep our eyes on Jesus even when the winds and waves rise. When we stay focused, prayerful, and filled with the Spirit, God equips us to stand in every storm and walk in the purpose He’s prepared for us.

Keep your faith, don’t be distracted, and know that He desires to spend time with you.
