Where is your focus? Are you looking at the obstacle or the one who can overcome the obstacle? As I was riding my bicycle, I saw before me a steep hill. My thoughts drifted, I thought I can stop if I cannot make it. Then I said what am I thinking, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me (Phil 4:13). I put my head down and looked no further than 3 feet in front of the bike. I started praising and thanking the Lord. Needless to say, I made it up the hill with God’s help.

“Let your eyes look straight ahead, And your eyelids look right before you. Ponder the path of your feet,
And let all your ways be established. Do not turn to the right or the left; Remove your foot from evil.” Proverbs 4:25-27
