What are you focussed on? Are you trying to get in shape? Lose weight? Excel at your job? Find a new job? Find a husband? Find a new husband? Finish school? Raising your kids? Preparing to have another kid? Preparing a meal? Wondering where your next meal is going to come from?
How much attention do you pay to God's word? Do you know that it is worth focussing on? Not just the easy parts. Even the long genealogies are worth reading. So is the Law. There's not part of God's Word that we can ignore. There may be passages that don't apply to us or at least don't apply to us now. We can learn from it all. We can learn about God's character. We can learn about His plan of salvation. We can learn about the right choices others have made and how they were blessed by them. We can learn about the wrong choices others have made and how it affected them.
Don't focus just on one part of God's word. Don't cherry pick just a few favorite verses. Read it. Read it all. Meditate on it. Focus on it. Let it breath into your life. Celebrate it. Don't be ashamed of it.
