BEWARE OF ATTACHMENTS

Felipe Massa of Brazil should have won the Formula One Grand Prix in Singapore in September 2008. But as he drove off from a refueling stop while in the lead, the fuel hose was still attached. By the time his team removed the hose, he had lost so much time that he finished 13th.

The apostle Paul warned Timothy of another kind of attachment that would cause him defeat—"the affairs of this life" (2 Timothy 2: 4). He urged Timothy not to let anything slow him down or distract him from the cause of his Lord and Master.

(From a sermon by Ajai Prakash, Be Strong, 6/22/2011)
