Focus (Proverbs 17:24)

It all comes down to focus. Where is our focus? Are we even focused?

"A man of understanding sets skillful and godly Wisdom before his face, but the eyes of a [self-confidents] fool are on the ends of the earth." Proverbs 17:24, Amplified

A man who has understanding not only know he needs to focus, but he also knows what he needs to focus on. He purposefully places the Lord in front of his face because he knows that where his focus should be. But the foolish man will not do so. His eyes are on the ends of the earth. In other words, he cannot decide where he wants to go or what he wants to do first. Sin is abundant here on this earth, but there is only one Lord. It is so much easier to focus on the One than on the many but the self confident fool does not understand this concept.
Keep your focus on the Lord.
