| Focus |
Ever wondered how distracted we can become if we take our eyes off of our track? Press towards the price of the mark, never look back, make constant daily movements towards your plans with a bulldog tenacity; don't be distracted. Yes, sometimes it happens, even after we put our dedication and commitment things may get delayed or things may go wrong. Believe that providence has something great for you.
A little boy heard God was giving apples in heaven, so he went with excitement to get his. There was a queue waiting in line to get apples too so he joined in. While standing, fully excited and thrilled his turn came and he stretched both hands to take his apple, but his hands
were too small, he couldn't hold it. The apple fell down and got lost in earth. He was disappointed. Having waited for so long. Not wanting to return to earth empty, he joined in the queue again; even though the queue had gotten longer this time. Still he waited. While waiting in line, he saw the satisfied and fulfilled faces of those who got apples and that made him determined to stay back. While wondering why he couldn't get it the first time. He didn't realize it was his turn again. As he approached, God leaned over and in a whisper said into his ears, "My child, I desire to give you the best apple in heaven. It was still growing when you came the first time. I had to make you to wait a little longer, to allow it grow. Here it is, the best apple there is. Enjoy."
In life without determination, and focus it's difficult, if not outright impossible to get what we want out of it. We will get distracted by discouragement, delays, and all sorts of dehumanizing situations, but if we decide to daily remain focused and try again, and again. We will birth great feats never before birthed. Who knows? Your decision today, to return to the queue might just be God, saving the best for last. Have a fantastic Saturday!
