Just
look
at
Me!
My son, pay attention to what I say; turn your ear to My words. Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart; for they are life to those who find them and health to one’s whole body. Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. Proverb 4:20-23 Just
look
at
Me! Let your eyes look straight ahead; Fix your gaze directly before you. Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways. Do not turn to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil. Proverbs 4:25-27
Even when I
Even when you
look
away~
to the right
or
to the left
He is still
looking
our way
waiting for you
waiting for me
to turn back
to
look
into
His eyes...
because
when we do
we will
take the path
that leads to
peace.
But when we
look
away
He is patient,
even in our impatience,
which is what makes our eyes turn from
Him
and
turn to others
or to other things.
What or where do you
look
when what you see or feel is just not enough?
When you believe that He just isn't enough?
I remember so clearly
when
God opened my eyes
to see
that I would actually turn my head
to the right or
to the left
when I wanted to do something
that I knew that I shouldn't do
because
maybe
just maybe
He wouldn't see me
and
I wound't feel so bad
making the choice to do
what down deep
I (really) do not want to do, Romans 7: 20
Oh when the rebellious child in me begins to emerge.
Even though I know
that all have to do is to
Just
look
&
Fix my eyes on Him
but instead I choose to look
to the right
to the left
because
whatever I am
~thinking
~feeling
`seeing
overtakes
whatever
truth
I am not believing
that
He is saying. What if we always looked first to Him?
But
even when
we take our eyes off of
Him
He never takes His eyes off of us.
Even when
we choose to go
to the right
to the left
He is there
always
looking
at you~
the you
He created
to be
His
always..
no matter
Whether you turn to the right or to the left,
because of His Grace
your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “
This is the way; walk in it.” Isaiah 30:21
Let's put into practice
Looking to Listen
And
“Take hold of My words with all your heart; keep My commands, and you will live. Get wisdom, get understanding; do not forget My words or turn away from them. Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will watch over you. Proverbs 4:4-5
every time you want to
Look
away
to the
right or to the left...
Because
His Eyes are on you.
