WHERE OUR EYES LOOK

Psalm 119:37

"Turn my eyes away from worthless things; preserve my life according to Your Word." NIV

"Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity; and quicken thou me in Thy Way." KJV

It is in our nature to look at and dwell on things that would take us away from what is Godly and holy. If we pray each day for God to help us to keep our eyes on Him and not on worldly, self-satisfying things, He will strengthen, refresh, and energize us to live and walk in His ways.

Heavenly Father, we commit our eyes and minds to You so that we will not get side tracked by the things of this world. We ask for strength to keep our eyes on You and Your will for our lives. In Jesus' name, Amen.
