Focus or Sink!!!

from Courageous Beauty · host Krystal Mitchell

Without faith you might be subjected to facts which often times doesn't produce God's vision for our lives. Which is why we walk by faith and not by sight. Our Faith is not produced in what we see it's actually in what we don't see and when we don't see the facts that are presented to us about our situations and circumstances we lean not to our own understanding and we acknowledge God in all our ways and he will direct our path. So if we don't focus on Jesus we will sink. Like Peter when he asked Jesus to prove it was him walking on the water to bid him to come but he was walking on the Word of Jesus when Jesus said come! At that moment is Faith and focus were aligned!! But the moment he got distracted his faith ceased and he sank. Which is why Jesus said o ye of little faith. We have to ask ourselves what did hinder us and caused us to loose focus and now is causing us to sink? What does focus mean anyway? noun • 1. the center of interest or activity. "this generation has made the environment a focus of attention" social media, society, social norms? Similar: center focal point central point center of attention hub nucleus heart Jesus is the chief (cornerstone) (Ephesians 2:19–21). And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; “In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord” anchor backbone • 2. the state or quality of having or producing clear visual definition. verb • 1. (of a person or their eyes) adapt to the prevailing level of light and become able to see clearly. JESUS IS THE LIGHT!! • 2. pay particular attention to. What does sink mean anyway? verb • 1. go down below the surface of something, especially of a liquid; become submerged. Similar: become submerged be engulfed • 2. descend; drop. Similar: fall Galatians 5:7 kjv Ye were running well; who hindered you, that ye should not obey the truth? The truth we need to seek after is that we can do all things through Christ that strengthens us. But we have to trust the process God allows us to take because he knows our end before our beginning. Galatians Ampc 5:7 you were running the race nobly. Who has interfered in (hindered and stopped you from) your heeding and following the Truth? Galatians 5:7 phillips were making splendid progress; who put you off the course you had set for the truth? That sort of “persuasion” does not come from the one who is calling you. Alas, it takes only a little leaven to affect the whole lump! I feel confident in the Lord that you will not take any fatal step. But whoever it is who is worrying you will have a serious charge to answer one day. So in otherwords what happened to your faith that would cause you to look at the facts of your situation and believe contrary to what God has told you to believe in faith. Maybe the pain you feel in your body but for a moment knocked your focus off and you choose to sink in the place of what the doctors report has said. The fact is you might be dealing with a real issue but we have to know that God's Word is the truth that really holds the power and holds the weight over our situations. We have to believe in the Word which then we believe in Jesus because he is the Word that was with God and that was made flesh so we can be the righteousness of God. So if our focus is on Jesus than our faith will increase and thus we will be counted as righteousness because we believe in God. While he works out our the kinks in our favor our Focus on him will not allow us to sink!! We won't Sink in confusion, self-destruction, fear, failure, complacency, disobedient. We can choose to float even if we cant swim because God will reveal a way in our situations that will get us to the shore of our faith; now that we can truly stand on. The emeny would love to whisper things in our ears why? Because Faith comes by hearing and that by

The Trials Of Women 10X Pod Group The trials of women throughout history have been marked by enduring challenges related to gender inequality, societal expectations, and limited opportunities. Women have often had to navigate systems of oppression, from fighting for basic rights such as the ability to vote and receive education to battling against cultural norms that confine them to traditional roles. Despite making significant strides toward equality, many women still face issues like discrimination in the workplace, gender-based violence, and unequal access to healthcare. These struggles are compounded by the weight of balancing professional aspirations with family responsibilities, as well as the continuous pressure to conform to unrealistic standards of beauty and behavior. Nonetheless, women continue to demonstrate resilience, courage, and leadership in overcoming these adversities and advocating for a more just and equal society.
