Jesus asked his disciples, "How long must I put up with you?" (Matthew 17:17 NIV)
Have you ever been to a service or group meeting when you've had that "mountaintop" experience? You're inspired by the wonderful music and great fellowship as well as by the message given by the preacher. But then it's over and you have to return to everyday life, to our valley, and it's far more difficult then to feel inspired isn't it?
Why is that? Well I guess it's probably because when we're back in our day to day lives there's so many things going on round about us that are God focused, that it's easy for us to be distracted from God and thus lose that inspiration we felt during our "mountaintop" experience.
We get frustrated at time by others, just think how frustrated God gets at us when we don't put Him at the centre of all we do, when we stop focusing on Him! We must pray to God focusing on Christ.
Let God change you for the better. He will get you though your valleys and back to your mountaintop.
Focus!
