John Follette emphasizes the importance of having the right perspective
in our approach to God and in our daily lives, cautioning against the
world's demand for instant gratification. He highlights the need to
focus on God's purpose and vision for our lives, rather than getting

The world is geared so that it wants everything done right now. But you
can't do the work of God that way.

We need perspective in our thinking; in our studying; in our approach to
God.

I am so thankful for what I call perspective in my vision of Truth. I
know now His purpose, and only as I look away, and not too closely at
the present, am I able to move on at all. "We look not at things seen."
I must see them all in their logical purpose, but not park on anything
too transitory.

We are all made to follow a vision of some sort, or pattern. All life
and activity is due to motivation toward some desired end or purpose.
What is our vision; or for what are we living? "Where there is no vision
(no restraining power in life), the people cast off restraint." {Prov.
29:18)
