đź“– Keep Your Eyes on Jesus
🌟 Scripture:
“Fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith.” — Hebrews 12:2 (NIV)
🌙 Bedtime Story: Ethan’s Race
Ethan loved race day at school. He had practiced all week and was ready to run. When the race started, he ran as fast as he could—but then he glanced to the side to see if his friend Max was catching up.
Suddenly, Ethan tripped and fell.
His teacher helped him up and said, “You were doing great! But you took your eyes off the goal.”
That night, Ethan told his dad what happened. His dad gave him a hug and said, “That reminds me of a Bible verse. Hebrews 12:2 tells us to fix our eyes on Jesus. Just like in your race, if we look around too much, we can stumble. But when we keep our eyes on Jesus, He helps us stay on track.”
Ethan smiled. He knew he’d try again. And next time, he’d keep his eyes on the finish line—and on Jesus.
đź’ Reflection:
Life can feel like a race. Sometimes we get distracted or discouraged. But when we fix our eyes on Jesus, He helps us keep going, even when things get tough.
🛏️ Prayer:
Dear Jesus, help me keep my eyes on You every day. When I feel distracted or tired, remind me that You’re running with me and helping me finish strong. I love You, Lord. Amen.
đź”— Takeaway:
Don’t let distractions pull you away—keep your heart and eyes focused on Jesus. He will guide your every step.
