It's difficult to stay focused, and God understands that. We just have to try our best. So don't be down about not being able to keep your attention fully on Him. Just get up and try again. Try every day all the time. If it is truly fully in your heart to be totally focused on Him and living in His Presence, He knows. Just keep shooting for that goal. But don't let other feelings get in the way of this goal. He is so happy to know that you are wanting to be constantly in His Presence. He loves you and loves every time you talk to Him. He can see how far you have come since you first began.
The world is a giant place full of distractions everywhere you go. When you realize you've lost focus on Him, just push through it to get back to focusing on Him. When you make it through small things like that you can celebrate and let it brighten your day.
But from there you will search again for the Lord your God. And if you search for him with all your heart and soul, you will find him.
Hebrews 4:13-16 (NLT)
Nothing in all creation is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed before his eyes, and he is the one to whom we are accountable. So then, since we have a great High Priest who has entered heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to what we believe. This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for he faced all of the same testings we do, yet he did not sin. So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most.
