Distraction Traction


Today it occurred to me to look at all the things that distract us from God (pain, wandering thoughts, regrets, doubts, etc.) as traction--stuff from which to push off, like a starting block--rather than seeing them as reasons to give up. We can make them work for us instead of "agin" us. The more frequent the distractions, the more numerous the opportunities for traction.
