Will It Be So?
Enjoy, All That Is.
It Will All Change.
Soon.
Psalm 119:6
Then I shall not be put to shame, having my eyes fixed on all your commandments.
.
Luke 8:15
But as for that in the good soil, these are the ones who, when they hear the word, hold it fast in an honest and good heart, and bear fruit with patient endurance.
…
Words of Grace for Today –
…
Bear Fruit.
In other words: be good, do right, be just, do good.
Tall order for humans who are caught in being bad, doing wrong, being unjust, doing bad.
Hearing (well we can do that), holding it fast (well that’s more quesionable, our grasp is always wavering), having a good and honest heart (well we all fail that one) and bearing fruit with patient endurance (bomb.)
So how are we to live.
Last week the forecast came out: snow Wednesday evening to Thursday, enough to cover and put to rest thoughts of a snow free fall for a few more weeks.
So into high gear I went, working as many hours as the sun provided light (and a few more) and (more limiting) how much energy my body could exert.
Now if such focus (at expense of lot of other things, mind you) were available for weeks on end I’d have more than enough wood for the winter.
As it is, it’s kind of touch and go. Lots of the wood in the stacks will either burn real fast (it’s about as good as sawdust) and some is so wet it may not burn at all, until after the coldest of winter (which may pull some moisture out of it, hoping).
…
No matter.
The fore cast now calls for freezing rain, followed by sleet and then ice, followed by close to a foot of snow.
All gathering wood from the woods will cease: no traction for the truck and not enough umph any more in the body. So what’s in will have to do, though I’ll add bits and pieces as I can still.
The sun shines. The temperature is a pleasant 3⁰ above. The wind is calm. The sun shines clear.
It’s hard to believe in a few hours the firm grasp of winter’s snow will grab this browned grassy area, and hold it for months to come until Spring springs.
….
Trust.
Trust it will be so, even if it will make things tougher.
But focused me it did. To use the time available for what will not be possible later.
So Trust.
Trust the Word.
For what life is may not be what we hope for,
but God’s Word is that it is GOOD.
In the end it will work out for us,
Jesus has a home waiting for us.
And those we love will be better for it.
Thank God.
