GAZING STEADILY

Today's reading: Acts 7-8

"But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, gazed steadily upward into heaven and saw the glory of God,.." Acts 7:56 NLT

Stephen was in a tough place, but he kept His eyes on the prize.

No one around him supported him.

Nothing going on in his life, at that particular moment, was going well.

There seemed no positive end in his line of vision.

Until he looked up.

Until he locked eyes with the One he was serving.

Until he decided it would all be for God's glory.

I'm asked this morning by reading this portion of Scripture, Where am I looking?
