Dig deep!

BARBARA DIX HENDERSON

Challenge is stimulus.Resistance is invitation—a reminder that, today,more is required of you.Be ready now.Your spiritual plowcan dig up every hidden obstaclethat seems to block your way.Gently, urgently gathering force,the tempo and courseare Mind-directed.United with Mindyou findthe yielding soil is not so very farbeneath the stony surface.So—Go to it!

Pilot your plow with patience.Perseverance provesthere are no crusted groovestoo 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 wayfor healthy, living shoots to start today.Keep at it!
