Devotional Memoir

Keep your eyes on the goal

Tennis. I took lessons once upon a time. During my elementary school years. Early morning lessons to avoid the tropical midday heat of Surabaya. 

I learned how to hold the racket. Practiced forehand and backhand. And remember this advice, “Keep your eyes on the ball.” 

Somehow watching the ball instead of the court and other players and my racket meant I had a chance of hitting it across the net.
