It May Not Be What It Appears To Be.....Stop Looking At The Circumstance & Keep Your Gaze On God ....

Appear.....when something becomes visible or noticeable.    When it can be seen.    The question is .... what are you seeing?    Is it a smoke screen?   A smoke screen is something that is used to disguise or conceal something else.    Or is it the "truth"?    The truth is something that doesn't change .... no matter what the circumstances are.

Did you know that God does not change ..... "no matter what"?    No matter what the circumstance is....God does not change.   No matter what it looks like.....God does not change.   No matter what you think about it....God does not change.    He has already said it and confirmed it in His word.....He said "I change NOT".   So if there is a change taking place in your life....it's not God that's changing.  

What we tend to do is look at our "circumstance" and predetermine our outcome.   When God is trying to get us to keep our "gaze" upon Him.   When you gaze, you look steadily and intently with fixed attention.    Are you gazing at God or what is going on around you.  

The thing is .... everything around you is constantly changing.   But God.....He never changes.  

Get focused today.   Stop looking at the appearance and focus on the outcome.   The outcome is who God is.    He said that He is the beginning and the end.....and the end result is where God is taking you.   He wants us to always keep our mind and our gaze "stayed" on Him.
