I was driving my golf cart this weekend looking at the sights and noticed that the cart would go in the direction I was looking. So when I wasn’t looking at the road, i kept going off of it. I wanted to talk about that today.
“We walk by faith and not by sight” - 2 Corinthians 5:7
As I was sitting in my thinking chair this experience and scripture came up. Then my favorite radio ad of all time that lives rent free in my head played right after it. It says this:
“Erik Weihenmayer knew the risks. Less than 1200 people had ever conquered Mount Everest and more than 175 had died trying. But still he climbed not seeing the terrifying drops or the fear on other faces. And when he reached the summit he didn't even see the view because Erik Weihenmayer is blind. He proved it doesn't take sight to reach the top. It takes... Vision….Pass It On.” - This message is a courtesy of The Foundation for a Better Life at Pass It On.com.
Life is a lot like the golf cart. We steer it into the direction we’re looking. So we must be looking into the direction of our vision, which is ahead, and not on the sights around us, which can make us distracted and veer off course.
Another scripture says this “set your mind on things above…” let your vision guide you to where you are to go, and you will always be moving forward in that direction.
