In whatever state, in whatever place, into whatever condition we may be brought this year—let us seek grace to follow our Lord's loving advice, and "look up!"

Do not look back—as Lot's wife did.

Do not look within—as too many do.

Do not look around—as David did.

Look up—for this will keep . . .
your head from swimming,
your heart from sinking,
your knees from trembling,
your feet from slipping, and
your hands from hanging down!


Do not look at your sin—it will discourage you!

Do not look at your self—it will distress you!

Do not look at Satan—he will bewilder you!

Do not look to men—they will deceive, or disappoint you!

Do not look at your trials—they will deject you!

"Let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us—looking unto Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith!" Hebrews 12:1-2

Look only, look always, look intently—to Jesus!

Run looking, work looking, fight looking, suffer looking, live looking, and die looking—to Jesus, who is at God's right hand in glory!

Oh, look, look, look to Jesus!
