“If you can do nothing else, just lift up your heart to Christ.”
“I can’t. My heart is too heavy to lift up.”
It Is as Simple as This
“Well, one thing you can do, for it is just a physical act. You can lift up your eyes. Will you do that?”
The young woman promised that she would do that, and on the way home she kept her eyes directed upward as unto him. The next day she gave her testimony with a radiant face, rejoicing in the Lord: “I lifted up my eyes, and my heart went up with them.”
The Victorious Life is just as gloriously simple as that—just looking up—unto Jesus—and KEEP ON LOOKING.
OUT OF BONDAGE INTO LIBERTY
“They do not care a snap of their fingers whether Abraham was justified by faith or works,” writes a leading American preacher in a recent article that seeks to interpret the heart-cry of men to-day for a prophet who can give them “a spiritual interpretation of the world-rending and home-smashing events that are taking place.”
Yet that very same question which was the all-important thing for Abraham, to-day, nearly four thousand years later, is still the question that goes to the root of the world’s spiritual problem.
