Fixing Your Eyes On Jesus

“He [God] is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him” (Hebrews 11: 6 NKJV)

Diligently – what a great word. Be diligent in your search. Step away from the puny pursuits of possessions and positions, and seek your King.

God rewards those who seek Him. Not those who seek doctrine or religion or systems or creeds. May settle for these lesser passions, but the reward goes to those who settle for nothing less than Jesus Himself. And what is the reward? What awaits those who seek Jesus? Nothing short of the heart of Jesus. “And as the spirit of the Lord works within us, we become more and more like Him and reflect His glory even more.” (2 Corinthians 3: 18 NLT).

Can you think of a greater gift than to be like Jesus? Christ felt no guilt; God wants to banish yours. Jesus had no bad habits; God wants to remove yours. Jesus had no fear of death; God wants you to be fearless. Jesus had kindness for the diseased and mercy for the rebellious and courage for the challenges. God wants you to have the same.

He loves you just the way you are, but He refuses to leave you that way. He wants you to be just like Jesus.
