The Lord Calls Us to Fix Our Eyes on Him

We're more often than not that we get distracted from what our prayer distracted from following Christ. It's only in relationship with God that we actually come to know who we are and the particularities of how God has made us to know and to love him. And while it can be discouraging or maybe even depressing when we compare ourselves to other people who describe wild spiritual experiences, we have to keep our eyes fixed on the Lord because what he is giving to us is ultimately for his glory and for our salvation.
