Look at Calvary

Are you thinking something is impossible to do? Perhaps you don’t see why it should be done at all.

There are two possible reasons for this. One is a kind of smallness of heart that the devil delights to encourage. The other is a dullness of sight that comes only too easily if we look at ourselves and not “away unto” our Lord Jesus.

The one certain way of escape from these two conditions is: Look at Calvary. Look till your dull eyes clear, and you see Love that poured forth all, counting nothing too precious to give for love of you. Don’t hurry away. Look, and as you look, a change will pass over you. You will see that what previously looked impossible is really the only possible thing for a follower of the Crucified to do. It will be as if scales fell from your eyes (as they did from Paul’s), and you will see clearly again.

Then your narrow heart will become enlarged, and you will run to do what you could not even crawl towards doing before.
