Matthew 6:22 “The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are good, your whole body will be full of light.

What we see is what we get. If we look for glory, keeping our eyes focused on Jesus we will find comfort and peace in even the smallest of things. If our eyes look for the faults in others and the world our soul will reflect that in our actions and ultimately tear us down defeating our testimony.

Just yesterday I found myself focusing on what I didn’t have and where I wish I could be and that truly started to wear me down, effectively dimming my light to a flutter. But the truth is God is in the now, God is working to bring glory to His name ALWAYS and when I turned from seeking defeat to finding the victory, I saw God’s great love in everything from the skyline to the beauty of human interaction.

So let us focus on the good, the joy, and the glorious hope that is found in Jesus Christ in all matters of life so that we can reflect His eternal love to the broken of this world.

Hebrews 12:2 Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
