A couple weeks ago on my Committed to Overcome page, I shared about my struggle with poor memory and comprehension. I shared the struggles I have staying focused and getting through bible study and any other non-fiction book. These are on the list of many that I am committed to overcome.
The other night I was sitting in the living room while my husband watched TV. My heart really wanted to be spending time with the Lord, working through my current study The Power of a Praying Woman. The thought of instrumental worship came to mind, so I pulled up YouTube and came upon Instrumental Soaking Worship. Talk about a game changer!
Saturdays' listening was a 3 hour one similar to what I have shared. I plugged in my headphones, hit play and literally became absorbed in my bible study for almost the entire time. The music played softly through my ears and allowed my focus to solely be on what was in front of me.
My plan this week is to use this method daily not just as a way to go deeper with God but also to help me stay focused while I learn about and work my new Avon business, when I sit down to write, even when I clean the house. We have a Roku for our TV, so I can easily pull up YouTube on there and soak the house LOL
I first learned about soaking when I went to a local Bethel Church conference here in NC a few years ago, but never put it into practice. I'm thankful God placed this on my heart as a way to draw closer to Him.
Here's an article about soaking prayer if you'd like to read more about it: What is Soaking Prayer?

This video is not the same as my first find but very similar. I pray that it blesses you and helps you grow deeper with God and brings you back to a place of focus.
