I do not give exercises to develop concentration. Concentrate on what you are doing at any time, that is the best exercise I know.
I remember when I was a boy about twelve years old somebody gave me a perfect peach of a jackknife. It probably weighed a quarter of a pound and there was a little saw in it, a little screwdriver, a corkscrew, a thing for getting stones out of horses’ hoofs, and several blades. I carried it for about a year thinking how handy it would be for certain cases that never came up, but it never lost its interest. I could always find, when I was bored, new interest when I took out the jackknife. If you make your search for God your jackknife in that sense, you will get you concentration and you will get your success.
Thus will I bless the e while I live … and meditate on thee in the night watches
(Psalm 63: 4, 6).
Our relationship with God is the ultimate utility tool. There is a blade or device in that relationship for every conceivable problem. When we are struggling with boredom, hurt, fear, anger, weakness, sadness, disappointment or any negative mental or physical condition all we have to do is turn to Him and look for the right tool. It will be there, and we will find the device we need to fix our problem or meet our need.
Using God’s tools,
