Week 10: Accomplishment
There is more joy in riding a horse than walking behind one.
2nd Thessalonians 3: 5-13
One could say the same thing about a tractor as well. It is nicer to sit up on the tractor than to walk behind it. This was especially true the first time I gave blood. They had cookies for snacks but I don’t eat sweets so I came home from school lightheaded and squeamish. I usually ate several peanut butter sandwiches as a snack when I got home but Daddy needed me in the field so I changed my clothes and went straight to him. We were planting tobacco and my job was to walk behind the tractor and hand plant whatever they missed with the machine. The gas fumes from the tractor and the fatigue from giving blood finished me off quickly.
Discouragement and disappointment will do the same thing to all of us. Lagging behind what God has called us to do will weigh us down, too. How are you going to climb up beside the Father and ride with him today?
