Are You In Trouble? Look Up.

Are You In Trouble? Look Up.

How often do you look up? For me, it’s not enough. I’ve noticed that I look…. A lot. I look at my phone. I look to other people. I look in the mirror. And on too few occasions, I look up. 

“Is any one of you in trouble? Pray. Is anyone happy? Sing songs of praise.”  James 5:13

This verse reminds me to look up. Always. When my heart is troubled. When everything is going great…Look up. Continually.

It seems like I forget. To seek Him. To thank Him. To pray and to praise. To seek His way over my own. To value His thoughts and Words more than popular opinion. But when I look up, my perspective changes. I see more. I trust more. 

So, how are you doing today? Are you in trouble? Are you happy?  Look up. You’ll see more clearly.
