Turn Your Eyes upon Jesus

Romans 12:2; “And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”

We have all learned in science that the moon radiates no light of its own. The brilliance of the moon that we see in the nighttime, is the result of the reflection of the sun’s rays. On some days we see a full moon, while on other days it appears as partial. Now we all know that this is because the earth gets in between the sun and the moon. As the gets in-between the sun and the moon, our visibility of the moon also gets interrupted. To state is simply, the earth keeps getting in the way.

Many of us are not able to move forward in our lives, because the earth keeps getting in the way. We are so focused on time, and so foggy about eternity, that the benefits of eternity are not able to penetrate the realities of time, and we are stuck with what we see. My friends, Let us not be conformed to this world, but let us “Turn our eyes upon Jesus and look full in His wonderful face, and the things of earth will grow strangely dim, in the light of His glory and grace.”
