Is Your Faith Short-Sighted? | Fixing Our Eyes on the Kingdom

Have you ever looked at something familiar from the wrong perspective and failed to recognize it? Sometimes our spiritual lives become just as blurry.

When our attention is fixed only on work, finances, relationships, responsibilities, and the crises directly in front of us, we can lose sight of the bigger picture. Our identity becomes unclear. Our purpose fades. Even our faith can become short-sighted.

In this message, we explore the connection between stereograms, macro photography, the firstfruits declaration in Ki Tavo, and the way Yeshua continually directed His disciples toward the coming Kingdom. What happens when the temporary becomes more vivid to us than eternity? What does teshuvah have to do with regaining our spiritual focus? And how can the sound of the shofar help us turn our attention back toward Hashem, His Kingdom, and the return of our King?

Elul is a season of preparation—a time to examine where we have placed our focus and make the necessary adjustments.

Are you living only for what is directly in front of you, or are you preparing for what is yet to come?

Is your faith short-sighted?
