James 4:8a Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.
First and foremost I love my Lord, Jesus Christ. Then it would be my wife, kids and other family members. Then without a doubt it would be hunting whitetails. It doesn’t matter what state i’m in or what the weapon of choice is. You can count me in. It has been a few years since I have had a chance to go out and spend anytime bowhunting. The drawing for bow hunting is the challenge of getting a deer close enough to make a sure shot. I want the deer to come as close to me as possible. Things I notice when bow hunting and the deer is within a few yards from me instead of one hundred yards, typical in my area for rifle hunting. I am more confident in my shot. The deer will appear much larger ten yards from me. There will be less chance of obstacles getting in my way of a clear shot.
The same is true for my walk with Christ. I want to be as close to God as possible. When this happens I am more confident, God becomes larger in my life. He becomes a larger part of the decisions I make. Also, the closer I am to God it seems that there are less distractions to get in the way of doing His will.
Both bow hunting and our walk with Christ require a lot of preparation and work. We must spend time to get in as close as we possibly can.
