As I was viewing this feat of man at the time Neil Armstrong was landing on the moon, I was impressed by the remark made by one news commentator, "These men cannot remain on the moon. They must follow in- structions. They do not have only themselves to think of but also the entire project." Think of that, Christian, when you are tempted to act independently of the control center, Christ the Lord. You have not only yourself to think of, but also Christ and His Kingdom.

"Just a closer walk with Thee, Grant it, Jesus, is my plea, Daily walking close to Thee, Let it be, dear Lord, let it be" (Anonymous). The closer we walk with God, the clearer we see his guidance.

He will touch and tug. He will take away our burdens; He'll even take away our blessings. If there are a thousand steps between us and Him, He will take all but one. But He will leave the final one for us. The choice is ours. Un- derstand His goal is to make us His. His goal is not to get us what we want—it is what we need.

Thinking about our lives, we need to realize the many ways the devil might be at work. He is a deceiver and a liar. Even so, many people believe his lies and don't rec- ognize his deceptions.
