Staying Focused on the Lord

O Lord,
This life is filled with so many deceptions, distractions and sin.  
It appears that these are eminently trying to overpower me to be weaker in You. 
However, Lord, I want to stay close to You.  
I want to have You always in my heart so that I can know the direction I should take.  
Lord, let me put aside vanity.  Let me not know it.  
Let my soul be content with what You provide. 
I don’t want to turn to the left or right, but stay focused on You.
​I give You all glory and praise for being in my life.
