Psalm 73:1-5

Psalm 73:1-5
The Message (MSG)

  What are you paying attention to?  Wandering through the grocery check-out aisle, there are plenty of things vying for your attention.  There's celebrity news, crises aplenty, and all sorts of other flashy headlines.  You can spend your life chasing such news.
  Or, you can focus on God.  You can focus on his goodness and the grace he is willing to pour into your life.  You can choose to let him fill you up, that you may not have the time or energy or desire to focus on all the chaos swirling around you.  You can be a vessel of peace in the midst of the world, or you can let the chaos grab you and pull you down into your level.
  Choose wisely what you attend to.  It will shape your life.

May the grace of God command your attention today
