Something to ponder!

A farmer was in need of a hired hand. A man appeared with a letter from his last employer, which read, “Sleeps in the storm.” The farmer thought this to a little odd but because of his need hired the man. The man was an excellent hand. Then one night a terrible storm passed through the country, the farmer jumped out of bed but was unable to arouse his new hired hand. The farmer rushed to his barn to find the animals all in their stalls feed and contend! Off to the field he ran, only to see the bails covered with tarps and staked to the ground! Turning he ran to the silo which was locked and secure! Now he grasp the letter, “Sleeps in the storm.”

My friends if we attend to the things that are important to life, if we are right with those we love and behave in line with our faith our lives will not be cursed with a unfulfilled throb of unfinished business.

The story and your words could not be any truer. We fret and worry so much that it's a wonder that the Lord continues to help us. Good post.
