Look up

Elder Sterling W. Sill said:
It has been said that one may not always look where he is going, but he will always go where he is looking. If we merely look down long enough, many will be sure to fall.
In that same conference talk he also said:
...the first step toward any failure is always merely to look down, to let earthly things absorb our interests.
and
It is pretty difficult to look down and to look up at the same time.
We need to be looking up - focussing on higher and holier things. Our mind and body will follow the direction of our thoughts. If we want to be a better person we should keep our eyes on the Savior.
