Living in the moment

Even when it seems impossible

One of the things a Christian ought to do is to embrace the future promises guaranteed to all those who are convinced of that Jesus is the savior of the world and that he vanquished all sin. 

[2Pe 1:3 NASB20] 3 for His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence.

The promises being that He is coming back again to establish his Kingdom.

Believers are also immediately adopted as sons and daughters into His Family the instant they believe. We can rest assured that we will never lose our eternal state or fall from HIS true righteousness. It is so important to live in expectation of the things to come. 

However,  it is even more important to continually be reminding ourselves of spiritual truth and focus on the goodness of God, even if our circumstances seem helpless or inescapable. 

Not only did Jesus live a perfect live and served all those around him, we are saved because of it. 

The Apostle Paul is an example of someone who persevered until the end, he experienced shipwreck, starvation, mobs, violence, and eventually death because of his devotion to THE Truth. 

[1Ti 1:18-19 NASB20] 18 This command I entrust to you, Timothy, [my] son, in accordance with the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you fight the good fight, 19 keeping faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and suffered shipwreck in regard to their faith.

Using Ephesians 5:19-20 to stay within the moment and "keep the eye on the prize:

[Eph 5:19-20 NASB95] 19 speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord; 20 always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;

Coming up with ways to be continually reminded in the renewal of our mind is so critical to keep from the evil of this world. Create a poem, a song, something that is from scripture and speaks of THE Truth. 

Keeping Focus

Keeping Focus on you God

With all the pain in this world

It's so hard

Yet you, gave yourself

As a Man

As God

100% 

To me, to everyone

Even when I fail

I have

Yet you welcome me in

100%

Times I hate myself and think I'm

vile

despicable

Yet was me yeah but you 

Took me out

Put in me with your son

Now I am clean

No need to

Revert

Sin

Lie

Steal

Cheat

Keeping focus on you is all I must do
