Friend's don't look down..........

Friend's, don't look down...............

 

Years ago, a young sailor went to sea for the first time. Soon after their departure, his ship encountered a heavy storm and the sailor was commanded to go aloft and trim the sails. About three quarters of the way up, the young sailor made the mistake of looking down. The roll of the ship combined with the tossing of the waves made for a frightening experience. The young man started to lose his balance. At that moment, an older sailor underneath him shouted, "Look up, son! Look up!" The young sailor did as he said -- he looked up and regained his balance. Similarly, when our focus is on the circumstances that we face, the waves of life, we can easily lose our balance and our direction. But when we switch our focus on to the victory that the Lord has already provided -- it is then that we will be able to maintain our stability, finish the assignments we've been given and get to the top!  Friend's, are you feeling unstable today? Let's look up! There's no reason to look anywhere else -- Look to God, He will give you victory! Psalms 98:1 Sing a new song to the Lord. He has done wonderful things. By the power of His right hand and His holy arm, He has saved his people.
