When I was young I played tennis and I had a coach who once told me to be confident. \u00a0He said to hold my head high and walk a little slower when changing sides between games. \u00a0I always remembered this and since that conversation I have tried to do hold my head high, walk slow and have confidence in myself.<\/p>\n
As I was running today I was thinking about how nice it is to hold your head high. \u00a0It gives you such a different perspective and view as you walk or run through life.<\/p>\n
When you look down most of the time you see more of the man-made things, shoes, pants, streets, side walks, cars, tires. \u00a0When you hold your head high you can see more of what God has made, the eyes of others, flowers, birds, trees and even the sky in your peripheral vision.<\/p>\n
I want to keep holding my head high, but I am going to try to change the reasoning behind it. \u00a0I don’t want to hold my head high anymore in confidence, pride, or superiority.<\/p>\n
I want to hold my head high so that I can keep God in sight!<\/p>\n
Jesus, thank you for the beautiful and natural things that fill our world and surround even our man-made things with your beauty. \u00a0Please help us to always keep You in our sight!<\/p>\n
