God,
Help me love the life I live right now. Show me the good things I often overlook and help me be content with what I have. Forgive me when I compare myself to others, forgive me for longing for things outside of You and Your kingdom. Thank You for loving me right where I am, right as I am. Help me keep my eyes on You.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

It’s easy to take our eyes off of Heaven when we find, comfort in our possessions, or happiness in our leisure. When we focus our hearts on these things, we are tempted to crave greater wealth and resent those who have more than we do.
But Jesus invites us instead to seek him first, and trust in His provision for our needs. And this is good news in any circumstance, for when we turn our attention to our Savior and his love for us, we find lasting joy that cannot be measured or contained by the things of this life.
