Plow a straight furrow
Well I'm feeling better so will try to get this back on track. My lungs are still clogged up but hopefully when I see my doc Wed. he'll get me on some antibiotics and maybe prednoisone (as much as I hate it).
Alright if you are not a farmer you won't know how to plow a field correctly. To get a straight row you have to pick an object on the other side of the field and keep you eye on that when you drive. Most of us would probably just look right in front of the tractor and try to stay straight but that gives you a wavy uneven row. The same is true if we want to keep our Christian spiritual life on track, we have to keep our eye on the Savior! We can't let life's ups and downs distract us from our main goal in life, to become more Christlike. It's easy as we all know to be distracted by other things that aren't even that important so let's make that a goal for this week to keep our eyes where they belong because we don't want a crooked row! Or a crooked life!

This is good. I always get tripped up when I take my eyes off the Lord, and look down at my cir****tances.
Please keep praying for my friend, Maria. I have enlisted a few of the women at my church to come alongside her as well. Things are bad for her and her family, but she plays a role in the mess for sure.
Hugs,
Trish

Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.
