Eyes Off Circumstances

"Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done. Sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts. Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice. Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always." Psalm 105:1-4

Circumstances appear bleak. They are demanding your attention, like a storm raging around you. You feel like your shelter will come tumbling down around you at any minute. Nothing is sure except for Me. I AM the Rock that is higher. Cling to Me, Beloved. Lift your eyes from your circumstances, and fix them firmly on My Face. Over and over, as often as you can during this day. Every time your circumstances appear bigger than Me, remember: EYES OFF CIRCUMSTANCES, EYES ON JESUS! Look to Me and My Strength, seek My Face always. 

Fear can only cripple and drown you so long as your eyes are on your circumstances. When your eyes are fixed on Me, you can walk on the waves. Be absolutely doggedly persistent and resolute in keeping your eyes fixed on Me. This is your most important task today. Eyes off circumstances, eyes on Jesus!
