| Dear Young Christian: |
| As you begin another week let me share something that perhaps we have shared before, but which is good to keep in mind as we operate from day to day in a world of sin, sorrow, and distraction: |
| If you want to be distracted … ….LOOK AROUND! |
| If you want to be miserable … ….LOOK WITHIN! |
| If you want to be happy … …… … .LOOK UPWARD! |
| If you want to be satisfied … ……LOOK TO JESUS! |
| If you want to be encouraged … .LOOK AHEAD! |
| With these statements I have enjoyed two verses that stand in stark contrast to each other: |
| “And if one look unto the land, behold darkness and sorrow” (Isaiah 5:30). |
| “They looked unto Him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed” (Psalm 34:5). |
| Where, and to whom, will you look this week? |
| Your Christian Friend, |
