Balance Phil. 4:4-5 #Nightlight #RTTBROS

Philippians 4:4-5 KJV - .
5 Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand

Balance is important in our lives today because it helps us maintain our physical, emotional, and spiritual health. In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in work, social media, and other distractions that can take away from our well-being. By finding balance in our lives, we can reduce stress and anxiety, improve our relationships with others, and find more meaning and purpose in life.

Some ways to achieve balance in our lives include:
- Seeking guidance from God through prayer and reading the Bible.
- Prioritizing our time and energy on things that matter most to us and our faith.
- Setting boundaries with work and technology to avoid burnout and stress.
- Taking care of our physical health by eating healthy and exercising regularly.
- Spending time with family and friends to build meaningful relationships.
- Practicing Bible memorization and meditation to reduce stress and anxiety.

Focus #Nightlight #RTTBROS

Focus  #Nightlight #RTTBROS 

 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus Philippians 3:12-14

In an excellent devotion by Dr. Paul Chappel I cam across this illustration of Focus.

"During the Peninsular Campaign, the Duke of Wellington was leading the combined British and Spanish armies fighting against Napoleon. The French emperor had conquered much of Europe, and Wellington was struggling to push him out of Spain. After finding himself repeatedly hounded for a detailed and in-depth accounting of how the army was spending funds, Wellington dashed off a letter laying out and apologizing for a shortage of one shilling and nine pence in a petty cash fund. Then he wrote: "This brings me to my present purpose, which is to request elucidation of my instructions from His Majesty's Government, so that I may better understand why I am dragging an army over these barren plains. I construe that perforce it must be one of two alternative duties, as given below. I shall pursue either one with the best of my ability but I cannot do both: 1. To train an army of uniformed British clerks in Spain for the benefit of the accountant and copy boys in London or, perchance, 2. To see to it that the forces of Napoleon are driven out of Spain."

Wellington rightly understood the power of focus and the danger of losing focus. History is repleate with examples of individuals who have maximized their contributions to humanity by having a powerful focus. For example, Einstein was focused on physics, Elon Musk is focused on technology and Shakespeare focused on writing. Warren Buffett, Alexander Graham Bell, Thomas Edison.

This power of focus can help us succeed in what we need to accomplish, but can I suggest an overarching focus?  Let's focus on hearing "Well done thou good and faithful servant" from the lips of our Father in Heaven.  If we can live as faithful Children of God, pleasing Him with how we live our lives we will have been truly successful

Keep Your Eyes On Jesus A.B Simpson

#MorningGlory.  RTTBROS
A.B Simpson

14 And the Lord said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward:

15 For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.
Gen13:14-15

Let us think for a moment of the blessedness of faith. Our own littleness and nothingness sometimes becomes bondage. We are so small in our own eyes we dare not claim God's mighty promises. We say: "If I could be sure I was in God's will I could trust." This is all wrong. Self-consciousness is a great barrier to faith. Get your eyes on Him and Him alone. Not on your faith, but on the Author of your faith; not with a half look, but with a steadfast, prolonged look, with a true heart and fixedness of purpose that knows no faltering, no parleying with the enemy and not a shadow of fear. When you become fearful you are almost sure to fail. Travelers who have crossed the Alps know how dangerous those mountain passes are, how narrow the foothold, how deep the rocky ravines. They know how necessary to safety it is that they look up continually. One downward glance into the dizzying depths might be fatal. So if we would surmount the heights of faith we must look up-look up. Take your eyes off yourself, off surrounding circumstances, off means, off gifts, and turn them to the Great Giver. Look from the place where thou art -Genesis 13:14
