“Let us fix our eyes on Jesus!” Hebrews 12:2
For every look at self, unfathomable oceans of grace are in Christ for you. Dive and dive again, you will never come to the bottom of these depths!
When you gaze upon the sun–it makes everything else dark; when you taste honey–it makes everything else tasteless. Likewise, when your soul feeds on Jesus, it takes away the sweetness of all earthly things; praise, pleasure, fleshly lusts, all lose their sweetness. Keep a continued gaze! Run, looking unto Jesus. So will the world be crucified to you, and you unto the world!
