Undistracted Devotion: Introduction (Part 1 of 5)

For those of us who claim to know Christ and identify ourselves as Christians, how much do our lives reflect the depth of devotion that He calls us to? For those yet to believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, do we offer them a valid and agenda-free look into what being a follower of Jesus means? Or do we only go "skin-deep" on both accounts? Though there would be many responses to the question "What is one of God's primary purposes for His people?", I think one that is often glossed over, if not completely overlooked, is that God wants us to become more like His son.

If you're new to the blog and/or this series, Undistracted Devotion, I recommend you begin with the series introduction by going HERE . This will help frame the context of the material to come and set the foundation for moving forward with the intended background thoughts and scriptures in mind. Today we're looking at another primary way we can lose sight of Christ and become distracted and divided in our devotion to Him. This is the pursuit of power, influence, and the elevation of self which all fall under the idea of control. From our earliest days, we all have a desire to exert authority over our lives and what happens to us. We have an innate goal of making things that impact us go the way we want and work in our favor. As we mature, this idea becomes more ingrained in our psyche by society and the marketing messages we receive.
