Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus

We're into Challenge 2 of  Patter Cross' 2012 Hymn and Scripture Challenge.   The hymn this time is "Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus".  If you go to Patter's blog post you will find Patter's devotional on the history and the scriptural truths behind the hymn. You can also listen to a beautiful version of the hymn by Selah.

Some food for thought from Patter's blog:

Where do you turn in times of trouble? Where do you turn in times of joy? How about distress, celebration, sadness, etc.? Can you say you keep your eyes fixed on Him in all things? Do others see Him in you? Is God your priority? Are you seeking His attention or others?

For my page, I choose a scripture from the book of Hebrews:

Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning it's shame, and sat dowm at the right hand of the throne of God.
                                                                                                              Hebrews 12:2
