Looking Steadfastly Toward Heaven

(ἀτενίζω atenizō at-en-id'-zo)

 

 

“And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven?  This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen Him go into heaven.”  Acts 1:10-11

 

Atenizo is a Greek word that means to look steadfastly, eyes fixed, and gazing intently.  It is taken from Acts 1:10-11 when Jesus ascended into Heaven.  We should all be looking steadfastly toward heaven, waiting for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to return again.
