#ldat40 Day 17 Stuck on a Feeling, Prince Royce
This song features ever so cool Snoop Dogg. His riff and the groovy beat get my head bopping every time I've listened to it. It's the kind of tune that sticks in your head and fixes your attention. Usually we use the word fix to describe repair. It's fallen out of fashion but another definition is to fasten or stick. There are five instances of “stuck” in the scriptures and they are generally used to describe an arrow piercing something. So fixed captured my imagination for this mornings song.
The Psalmist writes:
Then I shall not be put to shame,
having my eyes fixed on all your commandments. Ps. 119 6
Our hearts, minds and eyes can get stuck on a variety of things. When our attentions are fixed on the work of God in the world we operate at our best selves.
The writer of Luke captures that moment when our imaginations are stuck to Jesus as a fulfillment of God’s promise and presence.
And he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him. Luke 4:20
So what have you been stuck on? Has your attention been fixed on Jesus this Holy Season? What do you think?
