Distraction

Let your eyes look forward; fix your gaze straight ahead. …

No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide an escape, so that you can stand up under it.

I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, but in order to promote proper decorum and undivided devotion to the Lord.

But watch yourselves, or your hearts will be weighed down by dissipation, drunkenness, and the worries of life—and that day will spring upon you suddenly like a snare.

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”
