Dear Friends,
This is a perfect illustration of the spinning world around us. I sometimes feel as if the world is spinning out of control—don’t you? It’s at times like this, when anxiety and worry seem to be taking over, that I stop, take a deep breath, say a prayer, ask God to help me refocus and then do my best. If you have trouble and can only seem to focus on your own problems, go volunteer at Feed By Grace or at the hospital. It’s amazing how that simple act gives you a different perspective on life and your own issues. Peace and Love, Scott

Make Me Your Focal Point as you move through this day. Just as a spinning ballerina must keep returning her eyes to a given point, to maintain her balance, so you must keep returning your focus to Me. Circumstances are in flux, and the world seems to be whirling around you. The only way to keep your balance is to fix your eyes on Me, the One who never changes. If you gaze too long at your circumstances, you will become dizzy and confused. Look to Me, refreshing yourself in My Presence, and your steps will be steady and sure.
Hebrews 12:2 2Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Psalm 102:27 27 But you remain the same, and your years will never end.
