Ecclesiastes 10:10 If the axe is dull, And one does not sharpen the edge, Then he must use more strength; But wisdom brings success.
I don’t know if you have ever tried to use a blunt axe to chop wood, but it is very hard work. As a youngster I can remember doing exactly that because I did not know how to sharper the axe!
I know now how to sharpen my axe and I know it makes a very big difference with how much work can be done.
Being prepared for our work is very important and part of that preparation is simply learning.
This Christmas try to listen to the real Christmas story and learn just how much your God loves you!
