Refocusing (#0661)

2012/03/07 By Greg

Staying focused is an ongoing challenge.  There is so much one can do that it is easy to lose sight of what one is called to do.  The urgent can override the important and the exciting can trump the routine.

So What?

Living a focused life requires intentional periods of refocusing.

How do you refocus?  When? What role does Sabbath play?

Do you know yourself and your identity well enough to know when you are living an out of focus life?  Do you have others in your life that you trust and who know you well enough to tell you when they know you need to refocus?
