All of us are guilty of getting distracted at times, of failing to finish what is most important. We strive so hard to make ends meet or to get ahead in life that it is easy to become self-absorbed and neglectful—neglectful of others as well as of the LORD. In fact, some of us become so self-centered, so focused on our own wants and needs, that we actually dishonor the LORD. We bring harm to His name and damage our own witness for Him. And, tragically, many of us fail to ever notice what is happening.
