It’s Hard to Keep Focused I have a very short attention span. It’s something I’ve dealt with a long time and it seems to get shorter by the day. Unfortunately, I am easily distracted and will completely forget what I was working on ten minutes ago. I have to work at focusing because there are […]
Dealing with Temptation I had planned on writing about a different topic. However, I missed writing yesterday and now I’m happy that I did. The verses in today’s devotional spoke on temptation.
