Spotlight

 It is not always easy to  give God the spotlight in everything, maybe it is because of my upbringing, or my feeling about him. I envision him to be such a friend that I tend to ignore him, leaving him out even though I know he surrounds me (yes I am one of those people who not just believe he exists, but think he controls it all ). I love him but I think I dislike (almost to the point of hating) all this 'religious stuff ' loving him has turned into, I understand there is a Way to God not a path with sign an awards of achievement anyone apart from the one who gave the map can give. I just never understand why it is easier to get the message from the movies than through the lives of Christians, the most painful part for me is that I am one of them.

Focus

Sometimes it is so easy to get distracted, to loose focus, not to remember what is important or real. I for one have begun to focus on something that does not affect the real world. Maybe I want to live outside of it, but ignoring those I care about and not giving them any of my attention does not seem like a great escape, so I have to find something that keeps the balance for me. I really do think if I focus outside myself or into the future I could be really keeping the balance. I just need to find a way to keep my focus long enough on the things that truly matter
