I'm understand you completely simplyme...
Barb, this is such a wonderful thought. I find that a lot of problems we deal with, (not all but many) are caused by our looking around and dwelling on the "stuff"...
Looking at the "stuff" and other people has got to be one of the hardest things on a persons faith.
When Peter took his eyes off of the Lord he wasn't looking at the pure, and the good report, but he looked at the strong waves and the impossible situations... and we know what happened to him.
But it's not the end all when we start to sink... we just have to re-adjust our focus.
Thank you Barb for this reminder today!
