Unashamed. Nothing to hide. No fear. No embarrassment. Pure desire. Inner freedom. I love to read about Joshua. After Moses left the tent of meeting, Joshua lingered. Deuteronomy 33:11. Do you linger in the Presence of the Lord?

Psalm 27:8 says, “When You said, “Seek My face, my heart said to You, Your face, Lord, I will seek.” This is how I read Song of Solomon 2:14. “O my Dove, in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the cliff, let me see Your face, let me hear Your voice; for Your voice is sweet, and Your face is lovely.”

Gazers endure. Jesus is our example. Hebrews 12:2 says that He endured because of the joy that was set before Him. He had a point of focus. He never looked back. Luke 9:51-53 says that the messengers entered the village to prepare for Him, “But they did not receive Him, because His face was set…” Gazers resist all distractions.
