It's been said, "Shoot for the Stars while aiming for the Moon" in terms of aiming for a big dream and not hitting it head on. In fact, there is also the phrase, "Even if one misses, they'll land among the stars," Is that the same perspective for life? Can one aim for a general direction and expect to hit the bullseye? Can one aim for a life of success and it be counted as such when it's accomplished through deceit? If one wants to speak with authority but lives a life of gossip? If one aims for courage but constantly thrives in fear? If one desires vulnerability and humility but camps in pride? It was the thought that counts, correct? Well... Jesus offers a counter cultural invitation to this common phrase and life motto.
