In an earlier time, when people had to grow things to sustain their livelyhood. There lived two neighbors who owned farms side by side.
One farmer, while working diligently during the sowing time, decided to inquire of his neighbor as to how he was dealing with that year's hardships. The bugs seemed bigger, the water fewer, and the critters more prolific. He sought advice to help with his long fought battle on his field.
When he got to the other farmer's house he was just relaxing on the porch rocking in his rocking chair and sipping coffee.
"How's it going Joe." the farmer asked his friend.
"Its rough out in this world Bill" He answered.
"Tell me about it! How do you remain so calm? How are you dealing with this harsh season?"
"Deal with it? Bill I am doing exactly what you see me doing now."
"But what of the harvest Joe, you've got to make a living."
"Well you see Bill, I wanted to plant taters, but the critters keep crittering. I wanted to plant watercrest, but there ain't hardly no water. I wanted to plant some corn, but the bugs are as big as grapes. So I decided to just hold tight this season and not waste my time."
Bill could believe his ears, for he knew that you reap what you sow. "Well Joe...that's just plum stupid." And he drove home praying for wisdom, and for Joe because he knew winter would soon come.
Life can go good or bad, but in all things, God has our backs and expects us to be good stewards at all times. TALENTS ANY ONE?
LIFE IS FULL OF UNCERTAINTY, BUT BE ASSURED THAT GOD WILL SUPPLY ALL YOUR NEEDS.
HE JUST ASKS THAT WE KEEP SOWING IN FAITH.
In diligence, one guy accidentally created silly putty and made millions on purpose. I wonder how many ideas do we let lip by?
