The intentional focus of my mind, as much much as is possible, is to have my heart worshiping God, remembering His constant presence, and be aware and accept His great love for me when He choses to make it evident.

So basically Philippians 4:8.

If we paid more attention to the things we like in life, we wouldn't have nearly as much attention to spend on complaining about the things we don't like.

Colossians 3:1
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

Colossians 3:2
Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

Colossians 3:3
For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

Colossians 3:4
When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.

If we pay attention to our relationship to God we will receive the pleasure of that relationship

I cant think of a song about Gods love for us, maybe you know one? So the one with my modified words will have to do:


Oh God, you know me, and you love me

Always in my thoughts i worship you

When I lie down or walk, you embrace me

Ever the maker and keeper of my days.

You know my resting and my rising

And my purpose to love you evermore

In ev'ry moment of life or death, you are within me

God of my present, my past and future, too

The Garden of Your Love


At first I knew you little
Your firey arrows glanced from my stony heart

Your sheppards heart drawing and calling me through my life
Before, how could I know your delights sweet lover of my soul

Then You you said you loved me and I loved you
The difference made, I could no longer be the same

Your fiery arrows pierced my heart, brought me down,
made me low, made me nothing
in the love of You

My stony heart and spirit now
your garden

The garden in which we embrace each other
I cling to you my Father and you cling to me

A taste of your love forever in heaven
Why do you wait my Father, how I long for you
