Heart focus

Monday September 18th, Isaiah 50: I let them push, ridicule and abuse me but I didn't turn aside, not even when they insulted me and spit in my face. It is the LORD God who keeps us from being disgraced. The world tries to take us off down the path of personal gain and fortune. It is a glittering path with wonderful amusements on either side. The trouble comes at the end of the path. I am not talking about the flames of hell, they are Christ quenched. I am talking about the meaninglessness and loss we discover when we get there. (Ecclesiastes 5:8-18) Don’t be pushed and ridiculed into the you who was never meant to be, keep your heart focused on the Lord and live.
