“I seek you with all my heart; do not let me stray from your commands.” Psalm 119:10.

Walking through freshly fallen snow, a father wanted to teach his son a key lesson in life.
He said, “Son, I’m going to walk to that tree fifty feet ahead in a perfectly straight line. Then I want you to do the same.”

The father walked to the tree.

He turned to look at his son and they both observed the perfectly straight tracks in the snow.
Not wanting to fail the test, the son looked at his father and began to walk.

He looked down at his steps and veered to the left.
He looked up and corrected his course.
He looked down again.
He veered to the right and had to correct his course once more.

Arriving at the tree, his tracks told the story of his failure.

His father explained, “Son, as long as you focused on me, your tracks were straight. The moment you took your eyes off me, you got off track. The key is keeping your eyes on the goal.”

So it is in life.

There is one primary goal and if it becomes the heart and focus of your life it will be the key to eternal success.

That goal is following the Lord.

Keep your eyes on Him.

And He will keep you right on track to where you need to go.
