    Stay Focussed

    *Pray first, aim high and stay focused."*

    There once was a man who had nothing for his family to eat.
    He had an old
    rifle and three bullets.

    So, he decided that he would go out hunting and kill some
    wild game for
    dinner. As he went down the road, he saw a rabbit. He shot
    at the rabbit and
    missed it.

    The rabbit ran away. Then he saw a squirrel and fired a
    shot at the squirrel
    and missed it. The squirrel disappeared into a hole in a
    cottonwood tree.

    As he went further, he saw a large wild "Tom"
    turkey in the tree, but he had
    only one bullet remaining.

    A voice spoke to him and said, "Pray first, aim high
    and stay focused."

    However, at the same time, he saw a deer which was a better
    kill. He brought
    the gun down and aimed at the deer.

    But, then he saw a rattlesnake between his legs about to
    bite him, so he
    naturally brought the gun down further to shoot the
    rattlesnake.

    Still, the voice said again to him, "I said 'Pray,
    Aim high and Stay
    focused." So, the man decided to listen to God's
    voice.

    He prayed, then aimed the gun high up in the tree and shot
    the wild turkey.
    The bullet bounced off the turkey and killed the deer.

    The handle fell off the gun and hit the snake in the head
    and killed it.
    And, when the gun had gone off, it knocked him into a pond.

    When he stood up to look around, he had fish in all his
    pockets, a dead deer
    and a turkey to eat for his family.

    The snake (Satan) was dead simply because the man listened
    to God.

    Moral of the story:

    Pray first before you do anything, Aim and shoot high in
    your goals, and
    stay focused on God.

    Never let others discourage you concerning your past. The
    past is exactly
    that, "the past."

    Live every day one day at a time and remember that only God
    knows our future
    and that he will not put you through any more than you can
    bear.

    Do not look to man for your blessings, but look to the
    doors that only He
    has prepared in advance for you in your favor.

    Wait, be still and patient: keep God first and everything
    else will follow.
