With Eyes Fixed on the Sun




‘Although the desert is fearful, 
I walk with lifted head and eyes fixed on the sun; 
that is to say, on the merciful Heart of Jesus.’ 

St. Faustina, Diary 886

    I need to fix my eyes more on the Son. It's too easy to get caught up focusing on the self isn't it.

      Yes, absolutely it is easy to get caught up in self. It is for me, at least. The Son is the Answer!
