Focus

Mind wanders.

Thoughts flutter.

Eye shutter clicks

again and again.

Choose subject,

focus.

click.

Choose subject,

focus.

click.

What is my eye

drawn to?

 

In the dark room,

of life

what is developing?

What images emerge

after being

immersed in watery 

processing? 

As the image of me is created,

what am I allowing to be exposed

on the paper of my life?

What I focus on

will appear

almost magically

on the image

of me...

fixing our eyes on Jesus...

 Keep your eyes on Jesus, who both began and finished this race we’re in. Study how he did it. Because he never lost sight of where he was headed—that exhilarating finish in and with God—he could put up with anything along the way: Cross, shame, whatever. And now he’s there, in the place of honor, right alongside God. When you find yourselves flagging in your faith, go over that story again, item by item, that long litany of hostility he plowed through. That will shoot adrenaline into your souls!

Hebrews 12:2 The Message (MSG)

So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, 

since what is seen is temporary, 

but what is unseen is eternal. 

 2 Corinthians 4:18

So we’re not giving up. How could we! Even though on the outside it often looks like things are falling apart on us, on the inside, where God is making new life, not a day goes by without his unfolding grace. These hard times are small potatoes compared to the coming good times, the lavish celebration prepared for us. There’s far more here than meets the eye. The things we see now are

here today, gone tomorrow. But the things we can’t see now will last forever.  

1 Corinthians 4: 16-18 The Message (MSG)

Look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on what lies before you.  

 Mark out a straight path for your feet;
    stay on the safe path. 

 Don’t get sidetracked;
    keep your feet from following evil.

 Proverbs 4:25-27

Wingdreamer is refocusing...
