Finding Refreshment in the Word

Eyes on Him

By

 

WFW 12-1-10 v2

        My eyes strain to see your rescue,

              to see the truth of your promise fulfilled.

                                                          Psalms 119:123 (NLT)

 

Despite what things may look like all around you, be determined to keep your eyes upon the Savior. Let looking unto Him be your aim. For those that hope in Him will not be disappointed.

    Well done Wanda….I love it when the word fits the graphic so skillfully.

    We have been having Daniel at church also. The Sunday we started I had been away since May on Doc's orders…stay home and inside..and the Minister said, there are a lot of people here today who have not been for ages…I wonder what Daniel is going to say to them. I had just finished reading it myself. he assured me I was one of many or he would not have picked on me….LOL.
    I think I have got back once since and with God's enormous help I am on the worship team singing this week. 7 am wake up 8 am rehearsal 9 am service 10.45 service..you are wrecked even when well. But it is try or pull out altogether and I do not really want to do that.

    Amen Wanda! Forgive me, I'm a little slow. I just got the correlation between the title of my post on Monday and the Title of your blog. 🙂 I see why it caught it your eye.

    God Bless you. It's always good to hear from you.

    Wanda, I love this!! I love the image you've paired with the verse, and I love this translation. Sometimes it takes a conscious effort to see what God is doing . . . our eyes must be open and really looking. But He is working!

    Hi Wanda
    How very true and As I kept my eyes on him while in Charleston for my test of course he showed out!!! "Hallelujah"!!! All of the paper work was ready,they double checked everything and the doctor that spoke with me before my test said can I pray for you,whoa!!! that blew me away again.All of the results were goood "No Cancer" none Praise God,just scar tissue and acid reflux,plus I got my new medicine it was $349.15 and I only payed $1.10!! God is taking very good care of me and I am so grateful,plus Hebrews 12:2 my favorite scripture speaks of us keeping our eyes on Jesus. O yea wonderful post Wanda.
    Love ya

    Blessings Wanda…

    I focused and focused, straining to…

    figure out the words backwards below until I just finally had to read the NLT verse you shared completely. There was something about that eye that drew me to the challenge.

    My HOPE is to look to Him, and try to keep my focus always on Him… despite what my life looks like around me… despite the circumstances… despite the distractions… despite the weight… I will choose to keep my eyes seeking His rescue, which is all my HOPE and I cling to His promises!

    What a great Psalm and depiction for me to focus on…even when or as my eyes are straining, even when I close my eyes… He is My Rescue, My Deliverer, My Savior, My Hope and Truth! Thank you Wanda for giving me a better focus!

    God's peace and aMazing grace,
    Peggy

    Thanks for each of you stopping by and sharing your thoughts. Yesterday I was bogged down with work and didn't have the opportunity to visit many of the fellow WFW posters. Ms Pat I'm praising God with you. What a wonderful testimony! Peggy sorry to have you strained in viewing the picture. But that's the way we have to be intent on seeing God through our daily lives. B. Niles yeah I should have explained it better than that. May He continue to water our souls.
    Love you guys and thanks for stopping in.
