Dear Church Family,
“Eyes on the prize.” This saying stresses that when pursuing some good goal, focus is important. You don’t want distractions or a lack of self-discipline to keep you from obtaining whatever that prize might be. “Eyes on the prize.” You summon the willpower to fixate on that good thing. You let nothing divert your attention from obtaining the prize.
For Christians, the ultimate prize is spending eternity with Jesus. As we conclude our sermon series in this “End Times” season of the Church Year, Jesus promises to return “in clouds with great power and glory” to grant us this prize. This prize is so incredibly valuable that it deserves our full attention and effort. It merits our striving to set aside all that would distract us from Christ. Let us be ready. Let us keep watch. Let us live with our eyes on the skies.
