I have been a runner for many years. Monday I had an accident at the track- falling and hurting my shoulder-OUCH! What happened? I got DISTRACTED! A cute little boy was on the running track attempting to ride a bike-smiling, waving, and wobbling toward me. I smiled back, waved and at the same time took my eyes off the running course in an attempt not to collide with the bike. At that moment my shoe hit the uneven pavement and catapulted me through the air-SPLAT! Just as I was distracted, it’s easy to get distracted off our spiritual walk of faith. We want to believe and experience that God loves us and has a good plan for our future but, when we get distracted, it pulls us off the appointed course we desire to complete. Remember, even when we get distracted off our spiritual course and fall down; Jesus will pick us up-help us-heal us and love us. It is His will to continue on with us in our walk of faith, grow us up spiritually , and discover our God given destiny.
