Pavi Thomas introduces us to the question that frames our Lent series:

"So here’s the question we’re going to be focused on during Lent

What might life look like if our attention were focused on the things

that God is focused on?

That’s why this series is called The Attentive Life

We’re setting out to be attentive to those things that are on God’s

heart

And we’re going to spend the next several weeks learning to turn

our hearts to what is on his heart

So… the Attentive Life

Where do we begin?

Well, we begin with Jesus

Jesus lived his life completely and consistently focused on what was

on God’s heart

And as we take a close look at the life of Jesus given to us in the

gospels, we discover a very simple three-fold pattern that we can

actually follow

First, Jesus was attentive to God his Father

There’s a simplicity to Jesus’ life

He is constantly listening to his Father… It’s like he’s going about his

day, but his heart is turned toward his Father at all times… listening,

responding, following

Second, Jesus was attentive to those around him

His friends, his disciples, his followers… that little community that

wandered around with him

And his attentiveness to them had one distinct focus… love

He loved them… he loved them all the way to the cross and beyond

And third, he was attentive to the world around him

And his attention has one laser-beam focus

Luke 19.10 …the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”

For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son… "
