Sometime it seems as though we have no control over what draws our attention. We may know what we like or don’t like but and put forth the intention to focus on one of those elements but then other things crowd into our mind. The practice of showing up for my date with God each morning has taught me that it matters less what catches my attention as it does me catching what catches my attention. I may not have control over what is calling my name or some arbitrary distraction but I can choose to catch it and take back my ability to choose whether it matches my intention. I know from experience when I make choices in alignment of my intention to bring love versus get love.
My prayer for us is the courage to utilize our ability to catch our attention and bring it back to match with our intentions today.
