The Wisdom of Enzo

I just finished reading "The Art of Racing in the Rain" by Garth Stein. It is definitely one of the most amazing books I've ever read, about a dog named Enzo and his car-racing owner Denny and their life together. I have sobbed heavy tears for the past 24 hours since finishing it. Why can't we all be like dogs?

Both Denny and Enzo often say that "The car goes where the eye goes." While they were specifically talking about car-racing, it struck me in church that it applies in all aspects of our lives, especially when following Jesus. Our lives go where our hearts and minds go and if they aren't on Him, we are going to fly off track.

Seriously - read this book.
