Running in Circles

I once read the following definition of a fanatic: "A fanatic is a person who, having lost sight of his goal, redoubles his effort to get there." The fanatic runs around frantically getting nowhere. He is a basketball player without a basket, a tennis player without a net, a golfer without a green. For a Christian to make progress in … learning to please God, he must have a clear idea of what his goal is. … Jesus stated it this way: "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you."
