When we are facing hardship and trails and grow weary, we must remember what Jesus suffered and endured for us to obtain mercy. As we face hard times, we must steadfastly look to Jesus, keeping our thoughts on holy affections, in all things considering Him. What are our little problems and trials compared to His agonies? What are our trials compared to eternity with Him? What are our trials compared to the hardships of many others? Jesus wants to reveal himself to you, where you are in your own personal world; live in you and through you, as you focus your eyes and life upon Him. It is absolutely essential that as believers we set aside all that would distract our heart and eyes, and focus on God. This requires personal, spiritual focus – it is something for which each of us must strive. It is only in Christ that we are able to have a clear picture of God. It is in only in Christ that we are able to see God and know Him for who He is. Only lives that are focused on Christ that can know God. Christ Jesus, our Messiah, Redeemer and Lord is the expressed image of God. To know Christ is to know God.
