The Daily Blueprint for 10/21/10

Look To Jesus

HEBREWS 12:2
Let us fix our eyes on JESUS!

The WORD of GOD tells us to fix our eyes on JESUS!
We must look to HIM for everything - remember Peter on the lake? As long as he kept his eyes fixed on JESUS he was staying on the water - but one glance to the left or to the right and Peter began to sink - he cries out for JESUS to save HIM and HE does - this is a message for all of us who claim to know CHRIST - when we are first saved our eyes never seem to leave HIM but it seems the longer we walk with HIM to easier it is to try and walk the water on our own - we cannot do it apart from JESUS and HE has never asked us to - HE has told us in HIS word HE would never leave us or forsake us - He said He would meet our needs - He said in HIM we will have like and abundant life at that! Where we focus our eyes determines the direction our lives are gonna take - focus on self and you will become selfish - focus on others and GOD will use you for HIS purpose - focus on GOD and other - you fulfill the law! Our focus must be solely on JESUS - I know this is hard for there many other things for eyes to gaze on - not that those things are wrong in and of themselves - but what is wrong when they become our MAIN focus - if anything takes the place of JESUS in our lives -it's nothing more then an idol - I have had to learn the hard way that I have idols in my life but praise GOD, Jesus is losing my grip on them - I have gone though a season of heartbreak - a season of trying to find my path through this life - I have questioned my faith - I have wondered why GOD allowed so much pain in my life -the simple answer is because He loves me - because HE knows best - I had made some choices that were not the best ones I am learning now - I have learned so much during this time of learning - the best thing I learned is JESUS is faithful no matter what - I tried to run from HIM but as a Shepherd does with his sheep - He scooped me up and put me on level ground - where my eyes can now see HIM more clearly - where are your eyes looking - what are you viewing? Are you seeing JESUS through the eyes of faith or the eyes of doubt? Keep your eyes fixed on the SON! And you will shine!
Shine JESUS shine in me!.......Daniel

WORD TO THE WISE:
WHEN YOU KEEP YOUR EYES ON JESUS - YOU SEE CLEARLY
BECAUSE OF
CHRIST
WE CAN SEE THE GLORY OF GOD!
