Steering off course in life can also have disastrous consequences

"Steady as she goes" was a command given on an old television show about a submarine involved in may adventures. When all was finally calm the Captain issued the order. Compliance required a sense of direction, focus and ability. Ships are equipped with a compass so the helmsman knows which direction he must steer. He must focus on his course so he does not deviate and steer off course. Drifting off course could be disastrous for ship and crew. Here God instructs to pay keen attention to His teaching lest we drift off the course He has plotted for us. Steering off course in life can also have disastrous consequences.

1 Therefore we must give the more earnest heed to the things we have heard, lest we drift away.  Hebrews 2:1 (NKJV)
