Keep vigilant watch over your heart; that’s where life starts…Keep
your eyes straight ahead; ignore all sideshow distractions. Watch your step,
and the road will stretch out smooth before you. Look neither right nor left;
leave all evil in the dust.
Proverbs 4:23, 25-27 (The
Message)
Charging
ahead of us towards the playscape, my eldest grandson keeps looking backwards
over his shoulder. Eager to be first, he measures his footing not by what’s in
front of him, but rather how quickly his siblings and cousins are closing the
gap behind him.
Inevitably,
he stumbles and falls.
