As we focus on the eternal rather than the temporary, finding life to the fullest through Jesus, and praising Christ as the creator and sustainer of all things. the promises of God’s Word and the restorative love of Jesus, are realized in our lives and we praise His greatness.
“We fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen.” 2 Corinthians 4:18
“As we focus our minds and hearts on Jesus, we find Him shaping us, including how we pray. He enable us to give the gift of true intercession to friends, family members, and even strangers” Amy Boucher Pye in A Hidden Ministry, Jan. 10th, Bless the Lord, O My Soul. Our Daily Bread
What’s Your Focus?
When eternity is our primary focus, we are more able to recognize the temporary nature of our troubles. Paul called these “light and momentary: compared to the greater weight of eternal gain and glory they are working for us. 2 Corinthians 4:27i. That’s not just another wild claim. It’s a promise of God’s Word, guaranteed by His power. This we can believe!

Word’s of Jesus
“I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” John 10:10
Jesus is the ultimate expression of God’s restorative love, giving peace and rest to any who turn to Him. from the manger to the cross to the empty tomb, He’s the personification of God’s desire to call a wayward world to Himself. Read the Bible cover to cover and you’ll count the ways” of God’s love over and over; but eternal as they are, you’ll never come to their end.

Jesus, Worthy of Our Praise
"For in Christ all things were created." Colossians 1:16
In a sacrilegious society marked by ingratitude, little recognition is given to Jesus as the One who sustains “all things by his powerful word” (Hebrews 1:3). We who are saved by His sacrifice for us, though, realize His greatness. Let’s praise Him. He is worthy!
“The humble Carpenter of Nazareth was also the mighty Architect of the universe.”
