It is time that this blogger has to do what almost every blogger has to do at some point or another. I’ve got to take a break from this. I’ve written about priorities on here before and it’s time to admit that this website isn’t my biggest priority right now.

When I started Undistracted Christian, I had big ideas and great intentions for the website. Then life happened. I just don’t have time for this right now.

Even if I did have time for this, I don’t sense any direction with it. If I resurrect the site, it will have to be with a new sense of purpose and direction. I just don’t have that right now.

What I do have a bigger sense of direction for is taking care of my family and focusing on my writing career. If you haven’t already, please check out my writing website. I’m currently finishing up my second novel.

Maybe one day I will have something to say on here again. Until then, you can always browse the archives. You still might find something useful in there!

Thank you to everyone who has read this site over the past year. I’ve made some valuable friendships over that time and I’m thankful for all of you who have followed along.

Love

How To Win A Game Of Spiritual Warfare

As I write this, I’m dealing with a lot of things physically, emotionally, and spiritually that I can’t completely understand. My body is sick as I am trying to recover from some kind of cold or allergies or something that has made me not 100 percent for the past five days, I have ridden a thrilling roller coaster ride professionally with my writing career in the past week, and I’ve lost sleep over a number of things including a well publicized suicide that you may have read about in the headlines.

As I was wide awake (for no good reason) well past midnight Saturday night into Sunday morning I realized that this was not just a physical or emotional battle that I was waging. This was spiritual. I don’t always recognize it, but this time I knew what was going on. I had seen God do some really cool things in my life over the past couple weeks and now I was being hit by the enemy. It happens. But how do we deal with it?

Cast It From You

Cast It From You

If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.

And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast [it] from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.

Matthew 5: 29-30

Sometimes it is best to let Jesus speak for Himself. Don’t let anything get in the way of your relationship with Him. Nothing is worth it.
