"Where there are no oxen, the manger is clean, but much revenue comes by the strength of an ox." (Proverbs 14:4) This was part of my devotional this morning and it reminded me that mess is a blessing. Idk who else needed to hear that today , but I know I did. Mess is overwhelming sometimes, but every spill, mess, mistake, broken or scattered thing is an opportunity to train my "oxen" and build their character. Mess means we're living and learning together, and so many times all I see is the mess, and forget that we are actually investing in eternity and will receive "revenue" when we labor faithfully for the Lord. ❤️
