Today, I am so grateful to be joining Lisa Jo and this gracious, precious community of bloggers who bare open their souls to share raw and true what pours from their hearts through their fingers, writing for just 5 minutes, after reading the word prompt. Today the word is FOCUS.

There is only One who sees all that can help me to see clear.
This world, it causes these eyes to wander wide, and then this mind to wonder wide.
I can write all I want to.
I can speak all I want to.
I can teach all I want to — and still get it wrong.
Still miss the mark.
There is one Filter that puts it’s all into focus.
There is one Lens that makes it all clear.
There is one Book that defines as it refines.
It lights the way.
It protects this heart from temptation.
It liberates.
It never returns void.
It became flesh and dwelt among us.
And when eyes are blurry and bleary that’s One that I fix them on,
Who causes all things to come into right focus
and I see my way clear — still narrow.
