Look where you are going because you will inevitably go where you are looking. Where your attention is, there is your destiny. Attention is the key to life. Whatever you really give your attention to, you become. Whatever you really concentrate upon will come into your life. The Bible says, For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he (Proverbs 23:7). It does not say simply as a man thinketh, but as he thinketh in his heart, and this means thinking with interest or feeling.
This law is often illustrated most amusingly in practical life. The “horsy” man with his equine looks is known to us all. Kipling speaks of a Newfoundland fisherman who appeared for all the world like a great codfish himself; and Dickens speaks of a pedantic old lawyer who looked just like an animated roll of parchment. Keep your eyes open for these amusing dramatizations, and be sure to take to heart the tremendous lesson that they teach.
In which direction are we looking? What is it that we feel intensely about or for which we have strong desire? These are the elements that shape our reality and bring things into our lives. If we are looking to the physical realm and our passions are directed to the material world, that is where our present exists and where our future will be.
If we are focused on our spiritual lives and our desires are directed toward our relationship with God, then we can live in the Eden God created for us here and our future with God will be assured forever.
Looking rightly,
