We must learn to serve the Lord without distraction.

“While we were sinners, Christ died for us, he purchased our freedom. Therefore, “For he who is called in the Lord while a slave is the Lord’s freed-man, likewise, he who is called while free is Christ’s slave. You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of men, for whom the Lord set free is free indeed.” Dear Lord, thank you, for giving me a circumcised heart to fear your name, thank you, for putting a leash on me so that I may do what is proper and good in your sight, and that I may serve you without distraction. I ask you this day, to remove anything from me that would hinder me from serving you without fear or shame. Lord, I was bought at a price, therefore, I will glorify you in my body, and in my spirit, which is not my own, but God’s. I was washed and sanctified, justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the spirit of my God, and I understand, that all things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful, so dear Lord, keep far away from me, anything, that will cause a distraction for me in my service to you; for my circumcised heart is nothing, if I fail to keep your commandments. All this I ask in your precious name. Amen.
