How God Gets Our Attention
Part 2
Store owners have become extremely creative in
the methods they use to grab our attention.
The store itself can have signs in bright
colors or neon lights, awnings imprinted with
the store name, or a flag out front declaring
it is open. Mailings to our homes may come
with a gimmick like a magnet bearing a store
name and telephone number. Whatever the
method, its purpose is the same—to catch our
attention.
God, too, wants our attention. He has much to
say to us and wants us to adjust our schedules
so we can fellowship with Him. We get
preoccupied with what is happening around us,
and before we know it, days have passed and we
have neglected to spend much time with Him.
What does it take for the Lord to get our
attention? Will a restless spirit cause us to
seek godly counsel? Do we listen when God
sends someone to point out His way? When
blessings come, do we turn to God and ask how
He would like us to use them? Is it God we
seek when our prayers go unanswered? How long
does it take us to get past our emotions over
disappointments, difficulties, and failures to
listen to what our heavenly Father has to say?
In times of great financial crisis, tragedy,
and sickness, do our eyes and minds lift
heavenward to seek God’s love and wisdom?
Don’t allow yourself to miss what the Lord
wants to tell you. Begin now to train yourself
to give Him your full attention. Allow what
happens in your day to draw you to Him. He is
waiting for you.
DO YOU ?
Do you ever feel
discouraged and dissatisfied? Do you ever have
feelings of unrest and fear of the future?
Does the thought of death and the hereafter
haunt you?
YOU ARE
Are you
looking for an unconditional love? Someone who
accepts you where you are and loves you no
matter what? Look no further than a personal
relationship with Jesus Christ.
Cast all your anxiety on him because he
cares for you.
1 Peter 5:7 NIV
Never let the enemy tell
you that you re worthless or insignificant.
You have value in the eyes of God so great
that it was worth dying for. You are a
blessing to the world.
Did you know God's
forgiveness and unconditional love is
available for anyone who asks?
If you haven't made the
decision to accept Christ as Lord
