"TURN MY EYES AWAY FROM WORTHLESS THINGS; PRESERVE MY LIFE ACCORDING TO YOUR WORD." — Psalm 119:37 (NIV)
We live in an era of aggressive, constant noise. From the moment we wake up and check our phones, our eyes are bombarded with notifications, social media feeds, advertisements, and comparison traps. Every screen promises a temporary hit of satisfaction, yet so often leaves our souls feeling cluttered, anxious, and strangely empty.
It easy to get distracted by worthless things in this world. They can pull you away from spending time in God’s Word or time in prayer. They can keep you from being the witness you are supposed to be. Being a witness can be found in words and in actions, but if you are focused on self and things of this world…worthless things, you will not do what needs to be done.
As you go through this life, train your eyes to focus on what is really important and of high value. The greatest value in this world is your soul and the souls of every person on this planet. Your soul and every other person’s soul, needs to be focused on God and controlled by God, serving God.
Where are your eyes focused today? Are they on the worthless, temporary things of this world?
Or on the eternal things of God? Let us pray today that we will focus our eyes on the things God focuses on; that we will turn our eyes from worthless things; that we will focus on God’s Word; and that God will strengthen us to keep our eyes on Him.
Blessed day. Life is beautiful with Him.
