I can look one moment at a book six inches from my sight, at
the next I can with ease look on a tree 200 yards away, and the
next I can raise my eyes and view the sun millions of miles away
in the upper heavens. As easily should Christians, compelled
to look at the things close at hand, lift their thoughts and
prayers to God. But it is hard to refocus the eye of the soul
on the divine and eternal if the affections are too much set on
things on the earth. “Where your treasure is, there will your
heart be also.” (Text.)
