Eye on the prize.

You ever have a clear goal in mind and feel certain about your decision to move forward, and then someone or something causes you to pause and quietly re-route your thought pattern?

It happens to the best of us; we like to think we don’t let circumstances or other people influence our path, but deep down a small seed is planted that begins to grow slowly. As that seed takes root and expands, it brings with it a creeping world of doubt and disbelief—thoughts that quietly gather strength and carry a real potential to crush your vision if you let them.

Many believe all advice comes from a good place, when in fact it can arrive like a wolf in sheep's clothing. This is where discernment must come into play: do not simply lean on what others tell you to do when they might be trying to secretly dismantle your plans. There are people and situations that are sent to steal your Prize, so stay alert and protect what matters most.

Success does not happen overnight, but we must steadily press toward the mark for the prize, remaining focused and determined, and let nothing and no one stand in our way.

Keep your eye on the Prize!

“Let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up"

-Gal. 6:9
