How to Keep Focused in Difficult Seasons – Bill Johnson | Strengthen Yourself in the Lord
[Music]
when we’re in a season of difficulty
challenge a challenge on our faith
staying encouraged when we’re in those
seasons especially we have to choose to
live with self-imposed restrictions let
me try to illustrate you may have a very
active life most of us have active /
active life we have many things going on
all the time and you know you may be
involved in the softball league you may
be in a bowling team you may be you know
volunteer at the hospital you may have
all these kinds of things going on in
your life but when if crisis comes it’s
wise to recognize to restrict your focus
get rid of all these things they may be
completely legal and healthy in one
season but they become detrimental in
another why because the focus is
different the focus on our own emotional
health the focus on our own capacity to
hear from God to recognize God to
maintain strength all these things
become compromised in certain
surroundings that make sense to you what
might work beautifully in one season of
your life can actually be
life-threatening in another and so it’s
wise it’s wisdom to learn what
contributes to my life what takes away
you
