I have an interesting article to share with you that I read just over a month ago, where Tim Challies reflects on “Modesty Requires Looking Away.” With that title, perhaps you can guess the theme of his article… however, you’d almost certainly be mistaken!
In an age of 24/7 instant communications, news and social media, it’s very easy to get caught up by events and happenings that don’t really affect our lives and which don’t fall into our sphere of responsibility. This is a call for us to “give the most of my attention to what actually concerns me and to what I can actually change. [God] wants me to give my attention to situations I can actually impact and people I can actually help.”
