What we focus on, matters. It's easy to get caught up in a life that seems to be all about putting out one fire after another. The Bible is clear, in this world, we will face trials, there will be trouble. Remember though, our trials are not our everything. When we keep our eyes focused on the right things, we WILL make it through. 

Takeaways

• There are going to be times where we are not going to feel it, but if God has called us somewhere, we can still hold it down.
• When the enemy tries to convince you that something outside of God's will is what you really want, remember, it's always a lie. "It was always just a lie"

Verses Mentioned

Hebrews 12:2 "Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside God’s throne." I started to think about that first part, because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross.

John 10:10 "The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance."
