How quick we are to take our eyes off Jesus. Why? How is it we go from professing our love and allegiance to Him in one moment and being self-absorbed and mindless of His commands the next? Our problem isn’t belief or even commitment, but consistency. The Devil knows this and exploits our weakness here at every opportunity. Satan doesn’t care where your initial focus is or about the current direction of your life.
The evil one concerns his attention only with where he can divert your focus and alter your destination. It’s sad how willingly we play into his hands, and we do it on repeat. It would be bad enough if this happened only in times of trial or difficult circumstances, but we give in to this loss of focus even in the best of times.
