DO NOT OUTRUN YOUR HELP
DO NOT OUTRUN YOUR HELP
Good running backs know better than to outrun their blockers. The risk of being tackled short of the goal line is too great; one ball carrier against eleven tacklers is poor odds.
The same applies in other life activities. Do not outrun your help! Do not go racing off wildly on your own and expect success, in any field.
The great football running back, OJ Simpson, ran behind his big lineman Reggie McKenzie into the football record book at Buffalo, New York.
He did not outrun his blocking until he was in the clear. Then, he was gone!
Jesus teaches the same lesson about the power of two or more on earth in Matthew 18:19-20: http://mobile.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+18:19-20.
Do not outrun your help, ever.
