It is soooooooo easy to start drifting. Living for Jesus and having Him as your focus is hard, hard work. I liken it to paddling a canoe upstream. It is as easy as breathing to lose focus and to start drifting back downstream. We can get trapped in eddies, backwaters, eaten by crocodiles or overwhelmed by rapids.
I have lost count of the number of times I have done this. I do, however, carry the scars on my heart and in my life. So many times I have lost focus, drifted downstream and ended half-drowned, clinging to the rocks. Stay the course, finish the race if you want the prize. Retirement isn't in the bible...
blessings on your day
