"Fix Your Eyes On Jesus"

I was reading this book ("Fix Your Eyes On Jesus") by Anne Ortlund and was really impressed with a couple things specifically . . .

"A work-centered life gets complex, and it leads to burnout. A Christ-centered life--even in the midst of work--stays basically simple, nourished, and rested."

"When your eyes are on Him, you begin to develop a reflex action inside you--it may take time--that shuns what's complicating, what's overwhelming. You'll find you want to do less (but do the most important things) to become more."

"Don't touch Christianity unless you plan to make Him first. If you put Him second, I promise you a miserable existence." Dr. Henry Drummond
