Eyes #10

Today we will wrap up our look at our eyes and what our focus needs to be on. It has been clear we must keep our focus on Jesus not the world. We also looked at somethings God sees through His eyes. So let's jump into our last lesson of the eyes:

1 John 1:1-3

1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we looked upon and have touched with our hands, concerning the word of life— 2 the life was made manifest, and we have seen it, and testify to it and proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and was made manifest to us— 3 that which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you too may have fellowship with us; and indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.

Now this was one of the disciples (John) letting us know that God, Jesus, and the gospel are true. He had witnessed it with his own eyes as well as others. John wants us to know it is true!!!! Now as followers of Jesus, we can see with our eyes the fellowship we have with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Now we are to let others know what we have seen! The goodness and mercy of God!

Let's finish this look at the eyes with a look again at the eyes of God:

Hebrews 4:13

13 And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

God sees all my brothers and sisters, let us never forget that in our day to day life. His eyes are upon us! The good, the bad, and the ugly. May we keep our focus on Jesus and on that day when we stand face to face with our maker he will say these words to us:

Matthew 25:21
21 His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’
