A Life reflection Short Story

Have you ever wondered why a pigeon walks so funny? It’s so that it can see where it’s going. Because pigeon’s eyes can’t focus as it moves, the bird actually has to bring its head to a complete stop between steps in order to refocus. So it proceed clumsily- head forward, stop, head back, stop.
In our spiritual walk with the Lord, we have the same problem as the pigeon: We have a hard time seeing while we’re on the go. We need to stop between steps- to refocus on the word and the will of God. That’s not say we have to pray and meditate about every little decision in life. But certainly our walk with the Lord needs to have built into it a pattern of stops that enable us to see more clearly before moving on.

So how this apply to us?

Daniel’s practice of praying three times a day was an essential part of his walk with God. He realized that there’s a certain kind of spiritual refocusing that we can’t do without stopping. His stops gave him a very different kind of walk-one that was obvious to those around him.
What about us? At the risk of being thought of a different, as Daniel was, let’s learn this valuable lesson from the pigeon: “Looking good” isn’t nearly as important as “seeing well.”


A life verse to ponder

**Daniel 6:10 **

‘'Daniel… knelt down his knees three times a day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God..’


“Time in Christ’s service requires time out for renewal.”
