Focus on God, Not the Opposition

God’s been teaching me the importance of focusing on Him during times of opposition instead of looking at the problem.

Hard to do.

Today I read how Alex Honnold, king of bare-handed rock climbing, encountered a biblical-sized swarm of silverfish on a 2,000 foot climb.

His response: “It was heinous. At any given point I had dozens of them on me. But what are you going to do?”

He finished the climb unharmed. Most people need several days to do what he did in two hours and twenty minutes.

Now that’s what I call keeping your eyes on the prize!
