No and Focus

The most powerful focus-protecting word that a human being needs to carry in his or her toolbox at all times is 'NO'.

— JMeyer —

Being able to say “no” to people, places and things that are not feeding your focus and ultimately your vision is quite powerful.  I used to think I could be all things to all people and then I found the best thing I could do was to be all I could be for God…and He helps me sort out the rest.


Do you have a problem with over-committing yourself?

Take a few minutes to write down a few key priorities for your life.

Whenever an opportunity arises that does not support one of your priorities, say ‘No.’ You will be amazed at how good it feels…I write from experience.

Proverbs 25:28, “A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls.”

Heavenly Father, You have only given me 168 hours a week and 1440 minutes a day. Please help me use these hours and minutes effectively. Please give me the willingness to name my priorities and the strength and courage to say ‘No’ to any and all things which do not support them. It’s in Your Son’s name I pray. Amen.

P.E.A.C.E.
