In Genesis 13:14–18, God taught Abraham something about focus. He told him to look at the territory He was giving him, walk the land in every direction, and visualize the expanse of his legacy. Then He said to him, “I will make your descendants as the dust of the earth; so that if a man could number the dust of the earth, then your descendants also could be numbered” (v. 16). What did God train him to do? He trained him to focus on bigger thoughts.
