Listen to the latest 60 second episode of Integrity Moments with Rick Boxx
Integrity Moments is a 60 second workday devotional that provides business leaders with helpful insight into what the Bible says about our work and how we can fully integrate our faith into our vocational calling.

In the kids movie “Up,” there’s a dog named Dug. Throughout the movie, Dug gets distracted by squirrels. He drops whatever he’s doing to yell, “Squirrel,” then turns back to his task.

A friend of mine jokingly accused both my wife and I of being squirrel hunters like Dug. Our friend knows we can both get distracted by new ideas and lose focus.

In Mark 1, Jesus stayed focused. It says, “When they found him, they exclaimed: “Everyone is looking for you!” Jesus replied, “Let us go somewhere else—to the nearby villages—so I can preach there also. That is why I have come.”

Jesus stayed focus on his purpose. If you’re like me and find yourself hunting for squirrels at times, pause and refocus on your purpose.
