working the soil

The end of another week. And a mixture again, today, of relaxation and preparation.

Well, that's if you can call a heavy shift of digging in the front garden a dose of relaxation! But I guess what I was doing with the soil was in some ways what I was also doing with my soul.

Turning things over and breaking things down and getting things ready to generate life.

I also watched some rugby - and got myself engrossed in seeing the to-and-fro encounter between Wales and Fiji! But I had to miss the Scotland match (probably not that good for the nerves anyway!) as I was back to the business of working the soil of God's Word. Hard at the preparation once again.
