As a deer hunter, I like to set up my blind near a frequently used food source long before I go hunting there. I want the deer to feel secure so I can catch them off guard. Often when they come down the very same path I used they’ll sense something isn’t quite right. They sniff the air or put their head down as if to eat, only to jerk it back up suddenly in hopes of catching predator movement. Other times, they stomp their front hoof to see if they can get the predator to blow his cover. Once in a while, a wise deer will raise its tail because it senses danger and then return back up the trail to safety. More often than not, most deer give in to temptation and continue down the path to the clover field below to eat. He doesn’t know it yet, but he’s already past the point of no return. He’s come too far down the path and now there’s no way out. This is just what I’ve been waiting for.
What’s your weakness? The next time you face temptation think about what’s waiting to ambush you at the end of the path. Stay alert! We can help. Comment here.
