Colossians 3:1-2 NKJV

[1] If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. [2] Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.

I am notorious for getting tunnel vision. When I get stressed or frustrated, I hyper-focus on all of the things that aren't going right. I allow my anxieties and irritability to take my focus away from the truth that I know so well.

The days will have their troubles. My plans don't always come to fruition. Bad days come. Bad days go, but the Lord remains faithfully steadfast. If I commit my heart to focusing on the goodness of God, my joy doesn't flee at the first sign of trouble.
