Marksmen... A marksman is defined as someone who shoots with great skill and accuracy. We are all marksmen aiming at our own goals and objectives. Some people are better than others at hitting their mark. As marksmen, we can go through life shooting at our own targets (sometimes hitting and sometimes missing) - or we have the choice of handing our arrows to God. When God starts overshooting our targets, we can’t be blamed to think He has missed the mark. But God is a perfect marksman and never misses. Some day, we will come to realize He was never aiming at our target - but a target far beyond our range of vision. As we pass it, we will see God hit the target squarely in the center Mankind is often too short-sighted to see the targets of an eternal God. Sometimes our arrows (purpose in life) will hit the mark (bear fruit) long after we are dead. On handing our arrows to God we should keep in mind that just because we can’t see where God sent our arrow doesn’t mean He didn’t hit the target. Proverbs 19:21 New International Version (NIV) 21 Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.
