Mmm… looks like my post yesterday was too high-tech for everyone. Or maybe my high-technitude is so tiny, that when I try to be creative, it only sounds like the slurred ramblings of an old drunken fisherman. I’m fine with either one. I’d stay away from a hobo like me too, but there’s nothing that could stop me from BEING a hobo like me, so I think I’ll just enjoy it.
Everything is so great. I feel like I’m at the bottom of a well and life is dropping sand down on me to bury me alive. Y’all ever heard the story about the donkey that fell down the well and the farmers who tried to bury it? The donkey just kept stepping up. More sand would come down, he’d just climb up on top of it. In a measure taken to kill the donkey, the farmers (or whoever) actually saved its life. The donkey got to the top and lived on to… stay away from wells and stuff.
With all I’m facing (financially mostly), I feel like it could bury me and I’d be dead down here… in a certain way. If I say “Lord, you’ve always been so good to me. I trust you to take care of me.”, he shows me to just step on top of the sand that’s starting to swallow me. We may see problems in life as things intended to kill us, or bury us until we can’t move or hardly breathe, but the farmer has a purpose, to get us out of this well, to change us into people who can live freely above the ground. We shouldn’t’ be angry every time a few pounds of sand come down on us, but rejoice in knowing that as long as we keep taking steps, God will keep doing His work in us.
Take care everyone. Don’t drink hair spray.
Amen! I know Adam, that everything is gonna work out. God always provides for the needs of His children.
But… I like hairspray!
Amen! I love… donkeys… they’re so … ugly. Good stuff Adam. I like your sleeves. They’re real big.
I hate it when I drink hairspray. that stuff is whack. Crack is whack.
Nice! Love the analogy! I was going to comment on your post yesterday, but I didn’t have enough time… sorry! But also, very creative! If you’re struggling financially you know I don’t mind holding onto the truck a little longer 😉 Hey! Maybe I can even drive it to ya in September! **God willing of course!** God will make all things work… He always does!
So when we went on the Navajo mission trip last year we learned that some people on the reservation actually do drink hairspray to get a high… pretty sad huh? So yeah… don’t drink hairspray!
Whoah. I’ve got this urge to put some flowers on my profile pic. 🙂
Don’t worry Jess. Your fish face is much prettier than any flowers
Jess… your fish face is much prettier! But if you do put flowers they should be lilies! 😉
Adam… I found this quote and it totally spoke to me, I think it’ll apply to you too…
“If I refuse to be a corn of wheat that falls into the ground and dies (‘is seperated from all in which it lived before’), then I know nothing of Calvary love.”
