Life has its responsibility to distract you, but you have the responsibility to yourself to remain focused. Don't make things your focus, make Him your focus. There is a time to be left alone with God. You need to be left alone sometimes. Until you are left alone with God, there are some experiences you may not have.
God doesn’t want you to neglect your cares but He doesn't want your cares to have you and take His place. He wants to help you take care of your cares. He needs your attention; because He knows whatever dominates your mind has become your master. Your life is whatever you permit your mind to magnify, and which will become your reality.
