Reflections

Recently, we were on a tour where our guide guided us through some ancient ruins.  As there were many tours occurring at the same time, we had to continually keep our eyes on our guide.  For if we were to lose sight of him, we are in danger of losing the tour group and being left behind. 

Who is our guide? Who are we focussing on?  Hebrews 12:2 (NIV) Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith...  

Jesus is the author and perfecter of our faith.  It is Jesus who will guide us to the journey’s end where our faith will be rewarded.  But we have to choose to follow Him through the entire journey. So keep our eyes upon Jesus.  Fix it on Him.  Don’t lose sight of Him.  I have determined that no fiery trials, no disappointments, no illness, not even death will pull my eyes from Jesus!
