Fixed Upon Him

The heart shall rejoice when Christ is the central and highest object of its affection. Dedication brings pure rapture when the desire is wholly fixed upon Him- Jesus! His name alone, when breathed in adoration, lifts the weariest heart from despair and fills the seeking soul with exhilaration.

Psalm 57:7 ...  My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.

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.

Jude 1:21 ... Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.❤

Disciples

When Christ was here, He was looking for disciples...He is still looking for them today. Man searches for leadership; Jesus seeks followers. Man elevates the educated; Christ blesses the teachable. Man struggles for power; Christ teaches submission. Man strives for prestige; the Holy Spirit produces humility. Man labors for achievement; Christ requires only obedience.

[Frances Roberts]

Luke 9:23 ... And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

John 14:15 ... If ye love me, keep my commandments.
