12:2 (NLT)
12:2 (NLT)
We
do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects
our faith. Because of the joy awaiting
him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside
God’s throne.

We move toward whatever we focus on. If you think about what someone else can do
rather than what you can do, you feel slighted.
If you dwell on your wish list of ‘toys’, you don’t enjoy what you
already have. If you keep telling
yourself not to eat the M&Ms on the counter, you eventually eat them (at
least I do).

So how do we follow Jesus’

and scripture, then using that scripture as guard rails to stay on track. By viewing the details of life through His
lense. By journeying with spiritual
friends and Christian community. By
focusing on the positive and letting the rest fade away.

How can you adjust your focus to
move closer to Jesus?
