I spent 20 hours raking leaves on Saturday. Well, it felt like 20 hours but it was more like 2 hours. I only complained a little because I was exhausted, but I am thankful that I have the health to work in the yard and I do find it a little therapeutic. Then I went in the house and looked at our Charlie Brown Christmas tree and this is what I thought...
"But as for you, be strong and do not give up, for your work will be rewarded." ~ 2 Chronicles 15:7
Come to me all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." (Mt. 11:28-30).
