March 25

Running with Jesus  

Luke11:34  The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.

     "Oh be careful little eyes what you see!"  I couldn't help but think of this little song we were taught as a child! If we could all learn from this verse that tells us the eye is the lamp to the body.  Is this not so true today your eyes are reading this little devotion! Why? Mostly to get some encouragement or hope for living! Your eyes are so important! Don't think what you watch on TV doesn't affect your way of living! I see it every day! All the girls want Hallmark weddings! Come on you know it is true!  I use to watch soap Operas and think my husband should come and sweep me off my feet and be my knight in shining armor! When he came home tired from work and turned on the TV I thought he didn't love me.

     We have to guard what our eyes see because it can make us sick spiritually! They can lead us into all kinds of wrong thinking and destroy our lives.  We need to keep our eyes on Jesus and read His Word. There is health and happiness for life written on each page!

 Father, help us delight in Your Word and keep our eyes on You! Set out souls afire Lord, set our souls afire!

Tomorrow: Pet Canaries!
