Dig deep!

Challenge is stimulus.
Resistance is invitation—
a reminder that, today,
more is required of you.
Be ready now.
Your spiritual plow
can dig up every hidden obstacle
that seems to block your way.
Gently, urgently gathering force,
the tempo and course
are Mind-directed.
United with Mind
you find
the yielding soil is not so very far
beneath the stony surface.
So—
Go to it!

Pilot your plow with patience.
Perseverance proves
there are no crusted grooves
too hard for blades of Truth to penetrate.
Plow deep and sure
(cutting the tops off the weeds is no cure).
Haul out the roots and "gather out the stones"
to clear the way
for healthy, living shoots to start today.
Keep at it!
