Anchor

​IF you are like me than sometimes when you start to study or read about 10 minutes into your mind shifts and you start to think about other things. 
The other day, I was studying for a Leadership Class. Within about 10 minutes, I was thinking about what needed to be doing outside in the yard. All of a sudden I was writing all the things I needed to take care of and not even studying or focusing on the thing I set out to do.  Once I caught myself, I went back to studying and in about 10 min here we go again. Do we do this when we face struggles in our life. We start to focus on them and then we lose focus and start to focus on something else, so we don’t have to deal with it? 
 
Let’s take a different look at this and if you are Christ Follower do you do this when your studying His word? I Know I do! When we do this, I call this drifting with a lose Anchor. God wants us to be the center of our lives, the Anchor of our soul. Yes, our mind is going to wonder but how far are we going to let in wonder. An anchor on a short rope lets a boat drift only slightly before that taut line tugs the boat back towards the center. When we drift away from Christ, The Holy Spirt within us gives a tug, prompting us to return to Him. As we become increasingly attuned to His presence, the length of rope on our soul’s anchor is shortened. We will only wander a short distance before feeling that inner tug telling us to return to Center.  
 
In Hebrews 6:19 it says “We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure”
 
My question is What is your Anchor attached to? Worldly sand or a Solid Rock as Christ?
