“LOOK BEYOND!”
Philippians 3:14
“I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”
I have never been a farmer, but in my teens I did work on my uncle's farm for a few weeks. My job was to drive a tractor pulling a disc plow that was about 20 feet wide.
To keep going in the right direction I kept my eye on the furrow left by my previous pass. It was not long before my uncle came thundering out to the field. He demanded to know why the furrows left by the plow were so crooked. I told him I tried to keep them straight by watching the last furrow and following its track.
I will never forget as he explained to me that you never keep your eye on the last furrow, but rather look for a spot in the distance and head for it. When I did that, my serpentine tracks immediately became straight.
As we focus our attention on what God says in His word, we will find that our tracks will become straight and we will leave behind a legacy of following after the Lord. All we need to do is look beyond!
Blessings dear hearts. Draw near to God today, trust Him completely and be a blessing!
