Guest Speaker: Walter Foth
Imagine an archer. He stands, bow in hand, eyes trained on the target. Around him, the world is in motion. The wind rustles the leaves on the trees, birds dart across the sky, spectators chatter in the background. But the archer is unfazed. His focus is singular, his aim true. He knows that any distraction, no matter how small, could cause him to miss the mark. So he tunes out the noise, the movement, the potential distraction, and keeps his eye firmly on the target.
This is a picture of how we are to live our lives as followers of Jesus. The world around us is in constant motion. We experience the hustle and bustle of life. It is easy to loose sight of what really matters. Paul experienced this as well, in different surroundings, mind you.
