Focused On Him
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
Matthew 5:6
During every season of life, it is vital to keep our gaze fixed on Jesus. With our eyes set on him, we all can walk on the troubled seas of this life. We want to encourage you, “Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.” (James 1:12) And also, “To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.” (Romans 8:6)
May these words below encourage your heart to stay focused on Jesus as you meditate and reflect upon them.
Oh how I long to seek you
To hear only you my Lord
That every care would fade away
In the light of the glorious Word
Oh to know what you’d do each moment
To walk in your wisdom and ways
To be always pleasing to you
As my life is a sacrifice of praise
Whenever darts come my way
Standing with the shield of faith I’ll stay
Grounded and strong
Filled with great power and love
Hope flowing over and joy as my song
The waves they roar, the winds they blow
They try to quench my light
But no fear is inside, for you my life will shine
As sure as my scarlet sins were washed white
My hope, my gaze is fixed on you
My love, the one my heart pursues
My joy, always fresh and renewed
My vision, to be like only you
