Does it make you feel like you might not be ... enough?!

But Proverbs 4 reminds us: “Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before you... Do not turn to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil.” — Proverbs 4:25–27 This isn’t about pretending the distractions don’t exist. It’s about choosing what we fix our gaze on.
