Keeping Your Eyes On Jesus, Regardless

Fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:2

When things are going good it is easy to keep your eyes on Jesus and be thankful but when stuff seemingly is going not so well where is your trust?  Fear can enter in a moments notice with no invitation. Are you going to allow it in is the question.

Keep your eyes on Jesus when:
You feel like complaining
You are ungrateful
You are angry
Hopelessness sets in
You feel selfish
Tragedy occurs
You feel let down
Fear knocks at your door
You are frustrated
If you are sad and lonely
During a pity party
If friends disappoint you
If you get bad news

Basically when you can turn your eyes totally upon Jesus it leaves little room for the devil to get in your peripheral vision. Totally immerse yourself in his love and his promises. Get rid of things in your life that cause you to lean towards not trusting Jesus.

PRAYER: I love you Lord but there have been occasional moments when fear starts to seep in and I know it is wrong. Help me to totally trust you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
