Looking to Jesus

Looking to Jesus, not ourselves, is the key to a successful Christian life. We, of ourselves, cannot survive in this wicked world. We need the blood of Jesus, and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Our strength alone is never enough to fight off temptations and emerge victorious. In our own strength we become tired, discouraged and depressed. With the help of God, we can live a life of victory. Only when we take our eyes of Jesus do we begin to fail. Jesus will never fail us. When we begin looking at ourselves, we'll say, "What's the use?" We'll see all our faults and become discouraged. When we look to Jesus, we'll see only perfection and holiness. Let's always keep our eyes on Jesus whose power has and can continue to save us and bring us home safe to heaven.
