Therefore the LORD will wait, that
He may be gracious to you;
And therefore He will be exalted, that
He may have mercy on you.
For the LORD is a God of justice;
Blessed are all those who wait for Him.

(Isaiah 30:18)

Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

(2 Corinthians 4:16-18)

Let your eyes look straight ahead,
And your eyelids look right before you.
Ponder the path of your feet,
And let all your ways be established.
Do not turn to the right or the left;
Remove your foot from evil.

Now when He was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, "The kingdom of God does not come with observation; nor will they say, 'See here!' or 'See there!' For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you."

I think I need one of those cones of shame dogs wear sometimes to help with this. I'm willing to do anything it takes to not get distracted. But the ability to say "no" is hard sometimes. Drifting is easy. Have to catch it at the beginning and this is when discretion/discernment is needed.

Let your eyes look straight ahead,
And your eyelids look right before you.
Ponder the path of your feet,
And let all your ways be established.
Do not turn to the right or the left;
Remove your foot from evil.

(Proverbs 4:25-27)
