In our world, there are some not good things. The grandfather of these is named Lucifer(most commonly known as Satan). The mother of all bad things is named Distraction. Drinking, dating the wrong people, lying, stealing--''it's 'cool'''. So, of course, you do it. Our human nature wants to be liked. We want to fit in. Why? We get distracted. We enter a race. ''Creamy soda, yummy Cola!'' "Crunchy, munchy, Munchos!'' "crunch, crack, rip, snap: Kit Kats'' "ne-night only: special premiere edition: Your Favorite Movie!'' Grunt. You know all too well you should ignore the--what?--distractions! No, say no to the alcohol! No to the ignore-your-Bible feelings! No to the wrong date! No to the non-faith-exercising desires! Keep your eyes on your prize--better than the $1,000,000 prize you won last year, better than an Extreme Home Makeover you won last July--it's meeting your Creator, Jesus Christ, and spending an eternity with Him in His perfect home!! Practice your faith! Exercise your faith! Read your guide book! Keep your eyes on the prize!!!
