December 8: #Alert

When I sit in a deer stand, I am very alert to my surroundings. I hear every leaf fall, every bird flap its wings. I see the squirrels doing their little dance around the corn pile. I taste and smell the sulfur in the low tide breeze. I am much more keenly alert to my surroundings when I pause for a moment. Jesus calls us to be alert, so that we may see him in all things.
