A CLEAN TROUGH

Just a thought.Proverbs 14:4 - "Where no oxen are, the trough is clean;
But much increase comes by the strength of an ox."


In a way, it doesn't seem right to compare children to oxen. But I feel certain that Solomon had children in mind when he wrote this.


There are days when I wish my house looked something like this:
Those are the short-sighted days. The far-sighted days love the hub-bub of activity that results in continual mess to clean up once again, because it's caused by many "oxen."

Again I say, "Amen". I feel encouraged about our future because Peter and Julie Jones have put Samuel, William, Benjamin, Calvin, Amelia, and Cecily in it. We are all blessed because you have activity in your home.

Much love to you,
