Keep Your Eyes on Jesus
Jesus promises that the world will bring us trials and troubles. Things you’d never expect will come out of nowhere andattempt to derail your life. When COVID-19 hit the global stage, so much of our world collapsed. Business closures meant many lost their jobs. I wasn’t immune.
When I received the call that changed my life—I had lost my job—my natural response was to worry. How would I provide for my family? Would I be able to find a different job? How would life look different now that I’d be at home? The change looked like a huge roadblock in my path.
Often, we draw comfort from the positions we hold in the workplace or community, the financial stability we’ve put together or, in some cases, the name or fame we’ve built for ourselves.It’s easy to fall into our comfort zones and lose track of who we are in Christ.
But after I was reminded to fix my eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of my faith (Hebrews 12:2), losing my job turned out to be a much smaller bump in the road than I had anticipated.
Matthew 6:19-21 (NIV) says: “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
God is faithful. He will never leave us or forsake us. I saw him release me from the cycle of poverty that I never thought I would be free from. I have had the privilege of watching the many promises he made to me as a kid come true.
If we stand on the solid rock that is Christ Jesus and focus on what matters, no storm will take us out. God is on the throne and in control; the victory belongs to Jesus. This too shall pass.
Compassion International is proud to provide readers with real stories about how their ministry has lifted children out of poverty and into the hands of their Lord.

By exploring the story of one man’s journey from the slums of Nairobi, this five-day devotional will help you learn how to overcome fear, let go of control, and let the Lord take over.
