Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus
Turn Your
Eyes Upon Jesus
In Sarah Young’s devotional book, “Jesus Calling” she said, “A spinning ballerina must keep returning her eyes to a given point in order to maintain her balance.” So it is the same with us. We must keep our eyes turned on Jesus. Then our purpose, vision and focus is one. The hymn writer put it like this: “Turn your eyes upon Jesus; look full in his wonderful face, and the things of earth will grow strangely dim, in the light of his glory and grace.”
Peter learned that as long as he kept his eye fixed on Jesus he could do the impossible, but when he turned to look at his surroundings he began to sink. So it is with each of us. May our prayer be: “Lord help us to train our eyes to look upon your face so that the impossible becomes the ordinary.”
Think on these things.
