"But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was, and when he saw him, he had compassion."
Luke 10:33 ESV

If anyone could understand the temptation to let their vision distract Him from the father's activity, Jesus certainly could He told a parable that clearly illustrated this danger: A certain Jewish man was on his way to Jericho when he was brutally attacked by thieves and left to die by the road. First Levite, then  a priest, passed by. These religious leaders; surely they would show compassion to a wounded person! But they had places to go and appointment to keep, so they passed him by, Surely someone else would come along who had more time to help the wounded man! Then a Samaritan, despised by the Jews, came along. Of all the people, this man had reason to look the other way, since the wounded man was his enemy. But wherever he was going could wait, for someone needed his help.
   It's easy to become so busy that you are oblivious to those in need. Your vision, affect your thinking! Say, Your schedule can become so (fool) full of accomplishing good things that you are of no help to people around you. God is at work in the lives of yours friends, your neighbor, you family members. He may ask you to interrupt your day long enough to join Him as He minister to them. Nothing in your agenda, no matter how pressing, is reason enough to ignored the voice of God when He tells you to stop and help. If you have become too busy of the vision that affect your thinking to minister to those around you, ask God to reestablished your priorities so that you do not miss the mark of your calling and the opportunity to serve Him.
