“Don’t shuffle along, eyes to the ground, absorbed with the things right in front of you. Look up, and be alert to what is going on around Christ—that’s where the action is. See things from His perspective.
”
You just applied to a job posting. You feel it’s a perfect fit for you. The benefits and pay are fine. The hours work great with your schedule. You got a callback and executed the best interview you’ve ever had, but you didn’t get the position. What’s your first reaction? Do you beat yourself up thinking you weren’t qualified or you don’t deserve good things in life, or do you pick yourself up and tell yourself that was good practice for the job God really has for you?
When you look at situations from Christ’s perspective, there’s no room for negative thinking! You can either focus on what’s in front of you, or focus on what God can do. Christ fed over 5,000 people with two fish and five loaves of bread because He had faith in what His Heavenly Father could do. Have faith in what God can do for you as well. Look up from your situation and focus on the One who can bring you out of any situation. He can and He will.
Keep ya head up!
Father, I will not keep my eyes on the ground, but look to You in all my situations. It is in You I will find peace of mind and the many blessings you have stored for me. I will train myself to look at my life from your perspective. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
- This is my prayer
