Wanderings

Yukkie Day…

Yesterday, tried to get the weeds to die with some weedkiller. Supposed to see results in 12 hours (“works in 24 hours”). They must not have tried this stuff on our weeds. Did not see any results, so reread the instructions. Yes, I mixed the chemical and water in the correct proportions. Even checked what I used for measuring, and it came in “right on”. OK…out with another batch, and resprayed, just in case spraying early in the morning did not work, what with all the dew on the weeds.

Weeds are like things in our lives. We keep trying to get rid of the bad/evil/wrong/feared things, and they keep coming back. Our efforts sometimes don’t even knock the thing out of the way – we keep dragging that whatever along with us as we continue to try getting it out of our lives. If it was our yard, we’d call in an “expert” (like a gardener or other helpful person) and let them clear the mess. As it is, we keep whacking away at the weeds, when all we have to do is turn them over to HIM.
