Don't Try And Cross The Field Unless...

You heard about the sign posted on a rancher's fence? On the other side of the fence resides the biggest, meanest looking bull you can imagine. The sign is intended to strike fear into the hearts of would-be trespassers. It reads: "Don't attempt to cross this field unless you can do it in 9.9 seconds. The bull can do it in 10 flat!"

Don't try to cross that field unless you are prepared! And isn't that the way it is in life? We have to be ready when the opportunity arises or else we will have little chance of success.


What is it you would like to happen that isn't happening? Perhaps the answer is that you are not yet ready. Maybe you need more time to prepare before you are truly ready for that which you desire. You can't cross the field until you can outrun the bull!

Think of today as another chance to prepare yourself for that exciting future you are looking for.

-Today is not wasted.

-If you desire more from life, then use today as your training ground.

-You will experience only what you are prepared to experience.

-Something wonderful can happen today and you can use today to get ready for tomorrow.

Just be prepared to outrun the bull. That's why delay is not always bad, but giving you a chance to get in better spiritual shape. Remember that when you are walking through a valley and you will reach the next mountain.
