Looking Unto Jesus (poem)
Just one glimpse of Jesus and all the cloud depart;
All my foes are conquered, Peace reigns in my heart.
Not a lonely feeling, Not a tear may dwell.
Just one glimpse of Jesus And everything is well.
Look to Jesus. That is an imperative. It is a must for all who choose to follow Him and to know God. Looking to Jesus will do many different things in our lives.
Why look to Jesus? He will change things in and around our lives. He will establish our way and even the character that we need in life. He is the one who did for us what no one else could do.
Make looking to Jesus a regular practice and a habit.
Hebrews 12:1-3 ESV
Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God. 3 Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted.
when you need forgiveness, look to Jesus
when you are stressed and struggling, look to Jesus
when you are at the end of your rope, look to Jesus
when you have questions and no answers, look to Jesus
when you don’t know where to go, look to Jesus
when you want to quit, look to Jesus
when it seems so dark, look to Jesus
when you want to sing, look to Jesus
when you want to celebrate, look to Jesus
when you go to sleep at night, look to Jesus
when you wake in the morning, look to Jesus
One of my favorite hymns that I remember from my childhood sums it up pretty well.
Turn your eyes upon Jesus
Look full, in his wonderful face
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
In the light of his glory and grace
