Focusing


"For to me, to live is Christ."  -Philippians 1:21


What do you see when you look at the photo?  It is one of those optical illusions that require you to focus on the white area in order to read the word.  Now can you read it?

Lilias Trotter wrote, "How do we bring things to a focus in the world of optics?  Not by looking at the things to be dropped, but by looking at the one point that is to be brought out.  Turn full your soul's vision to Jesus, and look and look at Him, and a strange dimness will come over all that is apart from Him, and the Divine 'attrait' by which God's saints are made, even in this 20th century, will lay hold of you.  For 'He is worthy' to have all there is to be had in the heart that He has died to win."

I am grateful that all I need do is change my focus and I will see Him.
