Fixed on Jesus

Hebrews 12:2

Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

​

When you read the news headlines or think about the daily struggles you and your loved one's face, it is easy to lose heart. The challenges can certainly seem too overwhelming to overcome.

 

But that is why scripture causes you to have a different Focus not looking at the circumstances before you, but having your eyes fixed on Jesus. Why? Because he is greater than whatever is happening to you. Your relationship with Christ opens the door to every blessing the father has promised in his word and provides all the resources you will ever need. Jesus is the reason you can have an unshakable, eternal hope that everything is going to be okay, regardless of the situation.

 

So no matter what you're facing, don't think of it as terms of your strength or knowledge. Instead consider what Jesus the all-powerful, all white savior who defeated sin and Death on your behalf can do. Certainly he is the anchor that will always hold you steady, no matter how severe the storm may be.

 

Prayer:

Jesus when I get distracted or overwrought by circumstances always remind me to look 

to you. Amen
