Thursday’s Musings: Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus

Modified and used 4-16-20
Hebrews 12:1-2 (NLT)  Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith.

We know that keeping our brains challenged and active helps prevent loss of faculties. I try to continue to learn new things and I enjoy games like solitaire. One of my favorites, though is Mr. Giggle 2.  It’s a beat the clock swap three game.  I’ve noticed that even up to a half hour after finishing a game the images are still there if I close my eyes.  I shouldn’t play this before bedtime!  Our scripture gives us something else to fix our eyes upon.  Spending some time each day focusing on Jesus will change our lives. 

Loving God, thank you for giving us your Son.  May we spend some of this day considering him.  In his name we pray. Amen.
Blessings,
Paige
