The Path

Where are your eyes when you are walking on a mountain path?  Are you looking at the drop off? Or the view?  If you are looking at the danger you will be full of fear and will make little progress on the path.  It is good to have an awareness of the danger of a misstep but if this is where your focus is it will affect your pace on the path. 

On the other hand if you are looking at the view then the joy will flow in your heart as you enjoy the beauty of all that is around you.  Let the view be the grace that you need to power your steps.  This will help make your journey one of pleasure and not pain. 

 In recent times of transition in our family God showed me that I was focusing on the danger of the path rather than the view He was allowing me to see.  This revelation brought a new freedom for me to walk the path He has set before me.
