0901 不要讓仇敵扭曲你的視角
生活總是竭力捕獲你的每一個注意力，各種試煉主動擋在你面前，為要將你的注意力從我身上挪開。仇敵深知，如果你被眼前所見的一切吞噬、壓倒，牠就能找到進入你思維過程的入口，牠企圖用你所見之事帶來的焦慮將你壓垮，但你被造是為了一個更高的道路。
將我擺在你的面前，讓我成為你與問題之間的屏障。仰望我，藉著我榮耀的光，你將會有屬天的清晰度來看待試煉，透過我的良善、能力、慈愛和神性的視角來看待每一個處境。當我的榮耀充滿你的異象時，沒有任何事能夠扭曲你的視角。絕不可讓環境有機會主宰你，雖然試煉可能會出現，卻不可容許它們吞噬你的異象。看見我站在你面前，透過我的榮耀觀看，你將會在真理之光中看待這些問題。只有當真理的光已經深深地穿透你的生命，你才能以我的眼光來看事情。
我們在永恆的光中看待我們短暫而微不足道的苦難，我們將自己的困難視為那為我們成就極重無比、永恆榮耀的實質，這榮耀遠非一切所能比擬，因為我們不把注意力放在所見之事上，而是放在所不見之事上。因為所看見的是暫時的，而那看不見的國度卻是永恆的。——哥林多後書 4:17–18
0901 Do not let the enemy distort your view
Life fights to capture every ounce of your attention. Trials maneuver themselves in front of you in order to shift your focus away from me. The enemy knows that if you’re consumed and overwhelmed by what you see, he’ll have an entryway to your thought processes. He seeks to smother you in the angst of what you see. But you were created for a higher way.
Set me before your eyes. Let me be the barrier between you and the problem. Look to me, and then, through the light of my glory, you’ll see the trial with heavenly clarity. See every situation through the lens of my goodness, power, love, and divinity. When my glory fills your vision, nothing is able to distort your view. Circumstances must not be allowed the opportunity to lord over you. Though trials may be present, they must not be allowed to consume your vision. See me standing in front of you. Look through my glory, and you will see these problems in the light of truth. It is only when the light of truth has penetrated deep into your being that you will see with my perspective.
We view our slight, short-lived troubles in the light of eternity. We see our difficulties as the substance that produces for us an eternal, weighty glory far beyond all comparison, because we don’t focus our attention on what is seen but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but the unseen realm is eternal. –2 CORINTHIANS 4:17-18
