Turn Your Face

Turn your eyes upon Jesus

Look full in his wonderful face.

And the things of Earth will grow strangely dim

In the light of his glory and grace.

I sang these words many times as a kid growing up at First Baptist Church Jackson, MS. I have to say it’s one of my favorite hymns. But not until this month have these worlds begun to mean so much. With our house flooding, my questions about work, money, and my future, God has continued to ask only one things of me. That is to turn my face to him. Go to him. Be with him. Seek him. Sit with him. Walk with him. Talk to him. Listen to him. Move with him. Stop with him.
