Fix your eyes on Jesus, who is your future and your hope. If you are in Christ, your future is bright and certain. Everything today is small and insignificant compared to the prize ahead. This gives us cause to celebrate today and tomorrow as we focus on the hope that is within us instead of the circumstances that surround us.
There is a beautiful old hymn that says, “Turn your eyes upon Jesus. Look full in his wonderful face. And the things of earth will grow strangely dim in the light of his glory and grace!”
2 Corinthians 4:17-18 (NLT) - “For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever! So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.”
