A FOCUSED LIFE IS POWERFUL…but staying focused can get blurry in a hurry. Life’s storms, options, and choices can often find us filling our calendar aimlessly. If you find yourself walking through your daily routines trying to remember the FOCUS, the Purpose, the PRIORITY of it all then I want to invite you to Say it Out Loud, “I Have Lost My Focus.” In Jesus we see a devoted purpose of love and a clear calling and focus for our lives.

Losing empathy guarantees a cold and life of indifference. By admitting this loss to God we will find it in His warming love and redemption through His Son, Jesus.

Perspectives are gonna get turned by Jesus in this section of scripture that is commonly referred to as the Beatitudes or the Blessings. Jesus is going to mention for us four things that we might see and think of as a disadvantage…maybe even a curse. And then He is going to mention four things that we would see as a real advantage in this life…we might even say, REAL BLESSINGS. Jesus is gonna turn our thoughts and our focus on to His blessings as He invites each of us to place our trust and confidence in Him…not in our current situation.
