Blessings of Doing The Next Thing

Farmers who wait for perfect weather never plant.

If they watch every cloud, 

they never harvest.

Just as you cannot understand the path of the wind

or the mystery of a tiny baby 

growing in its mother’s womb,

so you cannot understand the activity of God,

who does all things.

Plant your seed in the morning 

and keep busy all afternoon,

for you don’t know if profit will come 

from one activity or another—

or maybe both.

Ecclesiastes 11:4-6
