Every step along the path of life, is a battle for the Christian to keep the eyes of the heart on Jesus. If I may speak my own experience, I find that to keep my eye simply upon Christ, as my peace, and my life is by far the hardest part of my calling. Hungering and thirsting for Christ, is the central daily Christian discipline. We depend on Him for hourly supplies of wisdom, strength, and comfort!
To know Jesus, is the shortest description of true grace; to know Him better, is the surest mark of growth in grace; to know Him perfectly, is eternal life. This includes all I can wish for my dear friends that you may grow in grace, and in the knowledge of Jesus.
[John Newton]
Hebrews 12:2 ... Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Psalm 16:11 ... Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.❤
