"What's going on?"

Click here to listen to Dr. Joey tell his story!

 It had rained all week. But Saturday was beautiful! So I jumped on my tractor—after getting the flat tire fixed—and started mowing the horse pastures.

 We live on the northwest side of what passes for a mountain in our part of the world. That means we get a lot of water running off of the mountain and down through the pastures. Most of it runs through a culvert, but with so much rain, the area around the culvert was pretty wet…wetter than I realized.

The weeds had grown pretty high, pretty quickly in this area. Along with the grass, they obstructed my view of the ground. So I steered the tractor in the direction of those weeds until I noticed the front wheels of the tractor going down, down, down…in mud. I quickly stopped, backed up before I got stuck, and decided that the ground would have to dry up before I could mow.

Do you ever just steer on with your life in a certain direction? So fixed on accomplishing your task that you don’t pay attention to your surroundings? Like what other people are going through? Until you get stuck?

Listen to your life today and ask God to you what’s going on around you.
