lately, one of the biggest things i am learning is my great need to fix my eyes on Jesus.  i have noticed that throughout my days, i can get so scary-wrapped-up-in-myself and in my own head...  i have thoughts on everything under the sun: buying gifts for Christmas, and all the homework i need to get done, and whining about what i don't have, and worrying what people think about me, and yadayadayada, on and on and on, that i have come to the point where i am unable to let myself go a day without at least some small amount of dedicated time to fix my eyes on the LORD.  there are lots of ways to do this, but i think one of the very best ways is by simply reading the Word.  i can notice a difference in myself on days when i don't spend time redirecting my eyes to God and it's ugly.  i really don't like myself and i don't like what i think about when i am not re-fixing my eyes and tuning myself back to the fact that i am not the main character in the world's story.  His Word is "manna today, or i starve" (ann voskamp)

so today, i want to urge you (me too!), let's practice turning our eyes upon the LORD.
