A couple of evenings ago my beautiful wife, the dog and I were out on a walk up to the top of the Elkhorn/Dollar Mountain. As we walked up the service road I noticed a strange thing happening, the dog’s leash was hitting all the plants and grass and weeds that were growing in the middle of the road. Now you need to picture this “road” in your mind, it is more of a trail that is wide enough for a truck to climb up the side of a mountain full of rocks, dirt and ruts. As I watched this I noticed two things happening first was it didn’t matter where the seeds were going whether they were going to good soil or the rocky soil where it seemed that nothing could grow. The second thing I noticed was the dog leash did not care which seeds that it spread.
The lesson to me is that we need to spread the love of Jesus to everyone everywhere even if we think that they are ” rocky soil “. As we walked up the trail that seemed nothing could grow on it there were beautiful wildflowers everywhere. So to me this is a picture of the amazing things God can do. He can take things that seem like nothing to us and turn them into beautiful creations. Go be a light, spread the love of Jesus and put the rest in God’s hands and watch as he works!
Beautiful observations
