Walking with Jesus - Day 13

"Looking to Jesus, the founder and perfector 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." (Hebrews 12:2 ESV)

Looking to Jesus, the founder and perfector of our faith, who for the joy set before Him, endured the cross, as written, in Hebrews 12:2, we find profound inspiriation.

Distraction often creeps in subtly and silently. The moment we shift our gaze away from Jesus, it's as if the storms of life suddenly appear larger and more daunting than they truly are.

Jesus persevered through the agony of the cross because His focus was unwaveringly set on the joy that awaited Him, our salvation and reconciliation with God. In moments of trial and uncertainly, we, too, can find strenght to endure difficult circumstances by keeping our eyes firmly fixed on Him.

Rather than being overwhelmed by the tumultuous waves of life, we should look to the One who walks effortlessly upon them, knowing that with faith in Him, we can navigate through any storm.
