Wednesday

Ten in the morning, no a bit afer ten; I have to run to the house and grab a quick shower. Jer has an appointment at the Dr.'s office in Elderton in about a half hour. Everything was cold in the barn this morning. I don't mind though. Working in the weather, whatever the weather, is invigorating and spiritually satisfying:

Proverbs 12:14-14 14 From the fruit of his mouth a man is satisfied with good, and the work of a man's hand comes back to him.

Hard work brings forth pains and muscles of all sorts; but there is something about physical work that breeds more than just physical muscles. I believe God created man/woman to work hard; and in doing that work we are satisfied in body and spirit. The work of a man/lady comes back to him/her. Ok, so we are rewarded in the fleshly sense with the blessing of being able to see with our eyes the result of the work of our hands. A good thing.
So much or our lives are quite complicated; not everything has to be. If we are faithful in little God promises to give us more. A little hard work can result in the reaping of a greater good.

All this is a bit ambigous, yet the principle is sound. I cannot always do a bunch of hard work, but even a little streaching of the muscles streaches my heart and mind toward heavenly places.
Nuff for now, I am late for the shower.
