**********************************************************************************

One day a farmer hired a man. He asked him to paint the barn. He estimated it would take three days…

The man did it in one day.

Then he asked him to cut up a pile of wood. He estimated that it would take four days…

The man did it in one day.

Then he asked the man to sort a pile of potatoes. He wanted them divided into three groups; one pile that he could use for seed potatoes;
One pile that he could use to sell;
One pile to use to feed the hogs.

He estimated that he would do that in one day.

At the end of the day he went to see the man to see how he had done.

He had not even started on the pile.

The farmer asked what was wrong and the man said, “I can work hard but I can’t make decisions.”

How are you at making up your mind?

Are you one of those who weigh the good and the bad and then are afraid to look at the scale?

Are you one of those who are good at discussion but a failure at decision?

Do you sit before the fact of life, afraid both to do better and be better because it requires you coming to a conclusion?

There is a hymn and many of you who are reading this have sung it. Sing it again…or at the very least say it again and again.

I’LL GO WHERE YOU WANT ME TO GOD, DEAR LORD,
O’ER MOUNTAIN, OR PLAIN, OR SEA;
I’LL SAY THAT YOU WANT ME TO SAY, DEAR LORD,
I’LL BE WHAT YOU WANT ME TO ME.

“You will guard him and keep him in perfect and constant peace whose mind [both its inclination and its character] is stayed on You, because he commits himself to You, leans on You, and hopes confidently in You.”
Isaiah 26: 3
