PURSUING THE RIGHT GOALS

A farmer had a dog who used to sit by the roadside waiting for vehicles to come around. As soon as one came he would run down the road, barking and trying to overtake it. One day a neighbor asked the farmer "Do you think your dog is ever going to catch a car?" The farmer replied, "That is not what bothers me. What bothers me is what he would do if he ever caught one." Many people in life behave like that dog who is pursuing meaningless goals. Pursue big IDEAS via ATTAINABLE goals.
Life is hard by the yard,
but by the inch,
it's a cinch.
--Gean Gordon

(Culled from Inspirational Stories)

NB: Find your goals by the right rules which is found in Isaiah 28:10, "For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:.."
AND
Zechariah 4:10, "Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin, to see the plumb line in Zerubbabel’s hand.”
God bless you and show up BIG in your little efforts in JESUS Name!
