Josh and Deed plowed the garden for Carla.  The garden space is starting to show the years of gardening, the soil is so much better from all the mulch through the years.
In our neck of the woods we started out with sunshine, low 60’s with a wind that is stirring the trees as they dance as it blows its own tune.  AND has blown in some dark clouds.  But the critical outside work for today has been finished and we will be consuming some pizza here shortly.

“Lord, teach me to listen. The times are noisy and my ears are weary with the thousand raucous sounds which continuously assault them. Give me the spirit of the boy Samuel when he said to Thee, "Speak, for thy servant heareth." Let me hear Thee speaking in my heart. Let me get used to the sound of Thy voice, that its tones may be familiar when the sounds of earth die away and the only sound will be the music of Thy speaking voice. Amen.”   AW Tozer
1 Samuel 3:10 And the Lord came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant heareth.
Can’t really add to the comments of Tozer on listening – and since I seemed to be finding my devotions dealing with that requirement for the past few days, I do believe the Holy Spirit is telling me to listen, MORE.
It Tozer, a devoted Christian, Pastor and author, needed this reminder, then all do; and me in particular.
