What Are You Looking At? Exploring the Biblical Relationship Between Sight and the Christian Experience

~ Katherine Carter

When we experience difficult times in life, we can spend hours, days and weeks trying to examine the situation and come up with a solution. We run ourselves ragged analyzing our thoughts, our actions, actions of others, our choices, and the potential outcomes of those choices. But all this hard work trying to navigate rough waters often leaves us frustrated and exhausted. Is this the way God meant for us to deal with life's challenges? Doesn't he see how tired we get from all of this?

God does see. His eyes are focused on us and He cares for us deeply. But, where are our eyes focused? The Bible suggests that where we look and who we focus on profoundly affects how we experience our lives and where we go in times of difficulty. Peter's experience of walking on the waves is just one example. Join us as we explore God's word to better understand the relationship between what we are looking at and how we live. (Matthew 14:22-31)
