Are You Too Concerned About Other People? | Rise Up Day 95

How much of your life is spent worrying about other people?

 

In today’s Gospel, Jesus says:

 

“What concern is that of yours? You follow me.”

 

What powerful words.

 

In today’s Rise Up reflection, Fr. Jonathan Meyer challenges us to stop getting consumed by:
➡️ gossip
➡️ comparison
➡️ social media distractions
➡️ other people’s lives

 

and instead focus on what truly matters:

 

Following Jesus.

 

So much energy is wasted worrying about things that are not ours to carry.

 

Today, ask yourself:
➡️ Am I more focused on others than on Christ?
➡️ What distractions are keeping me from following the Lord wholeheartedly?

 

As we prepare for Pentecost, may we surrender distraction and become more attentive to the voice of God.

 

Just follow Him.

 

Come Holy Spirit.
