Even in the midst of worship, where your mind is reminded of something and there goes the focus. I recently read about a recommendation to set an alarm every 60 minutes as a reminder to stop and focus on God. I wonder if that would help. I am convinced ministry would be far more effective if we could not get caught up in the tasks and details. Thanks for the reminder.

I think all of us in ministry are guilty of this because of the pressures on us of time and productivity. We have so little time to "be still and know that I am God." Unfortunately, that's the sad reality. Ron – great post. I think all of us in ministry are guilty of this because of the pressures on us of time and productivity.
