Proverbs in Pictures #5

As believers, the Bible tells us that the path we're following is narrow, while the rest of the world is walking the wide one. Not only is our path narrow, but it's also slippery, and laden with mines set to destroy us. The problem comes when we take our eyes off the path we're to follow... suddenly forbidden fruit begins looking desirable, and we begin to stumble instead of walking confidently. We are not only more likely, at that point, to step over and eat the forbidden fruit, but we're also more likely to step on the hidden mines we weren't watching out for.

But if we set our gaze, fixating it on Christ, and ponder the path of our feet, then our ways will be sure.
