Holy Ghost!

With all that’s been happening in and around the world, we can sometimes get too focused on the things of this world.  Just last week after a series of events, I was feeling very frustrated and found my thoughts continually going back to things that I could have handled better or ways to improve the situations around me.  I was so intent on these thoughts that during my prayer time, it was quite the distraction.  However, as I spent time in prayer before service, Jesus provided the answer to my concerns.  I had been so focused on the very temporal and uncontrollable situations going on in my life, when in reality, I should have held to the Eternal Perspective.  That view being that God is in control of my life, and I should rest my hope in His power to affect my circumstances through prayer.  In fact I shouldn’t focus too much on circumstances at all, rather to place my hope in what Jesus has in store for us.
