Yesterday I wished a friend a happy birthday. Why? Because Facebook told me it was his birthday. And, like so many others, I believed what Facebook said to be truth. Turns out his birthday is in the summer.
Am I alone in believing what is not true? I say not. Look at how many people are still waiting for Mark Zukerberg to hand out millions, or how Trump is making people question the citizenship of Cruz, or how Steve Harvey is being ridiculed for making a simple mistake, or how people are demanding that a convicted felon be released because of a TV show. We hear it, we believe it, we act on it. We just forget to verify it.
Take the time to focus on the truth.
These two pictures were made seconds apart. Neither the camera nor the subject moved. What changed? The focus! By adjusting the focus, much of the clutter in the picture was minimized. The weed became much more visible.
Do we need to adjust our focus?
Others fell among the thorns, and the thorns came up and choked them out.
Matthew 13:7
