TURN YOUR EYES UPON JESUS:

[MW Couch]

BIBLE MEDITATION:
Mark 11:22 - "And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God."

DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
I ask some Christians, "How are you doing?" They say, "Okay under the
circumstances." How did you ever get there? Circumstances are like a mattress.
You're supposed to be on it, not under it. Under the circumstances, you
suffocate; on them you rest pretty well. The only way that you can run the race
is to take your eyes off things or people around you and look unto Jesus. He's
the author of the race. He's the goal to which you run. If you look unto Jesus
to supply your every need for the race, you'll find faith growing in your heart
and in your life. You see, it's not great faith in God; it is faith in a great
God.
