Not To Lose Focus Of Jesus

Col 2:16-19
16 So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, 17 which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ. 18 Let no one cheat you of your reward, taking delight in false humility and worship of angels, intruding into those things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, 19 and not holding fast to the Head, from whom all the body, nourished and knit together by joints and ligaments, grows with the increase that is from God.


Paul writes here of the importance of Christ as the head, and not letting these distractions drive us to lose focus on Him.


In the first part of this passage, it state to not let anyone judge you. This is merely stating to not let other opinion sway you in your focus of God. Continue to focus on the Lord, for He is the head of the church, the body of Christ.

Father God, blessed is Your name. I honor you and give you glory. Let me not lose focus on You and the plans that You have for me. I pray for the people that I will encounter, and to be used to connect with others and connect others to You. Let your will be done, Lord. I pray this in Your Holy and Mighty name.
Amen.
