My Filter

I keep the Lord in mind always. Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
Psalms 16:8 HCSB

I have mentioned before I am interested in astronomy. The club I belong to has a solar telescope with which we can view the sun. This telescope has a special filter to protect the eyes from damaged as looking at the sun destroys our retina, after prolonged exposure.

My Jesus is the filter through which the Father views me. He sees me as washed clean by the blood of His Son. My Jesus is the filter through which I view my world. I must see my life as He sees it, because my emotions do not interpret well, they are inclined to be negatively affected.

Defying all circumstances I am living free and rejoicing and absolutely loving life. Because I am so free, I am much more tolerant and patient. Today a small task turned into an hour-long task and even my mother commented on my patience. (I wonder where I got that from?? Not from my family!)

I had the best day and all because of the filter through which I viewed the day. It started bathed in prayer. Praise God, He is soooooo good!!!
