Sleeping Farmer

Once a farmer was interviewing for new workers. The farmer especially liked one young man who seemed very joyful and capable. The farmer asked him, “What makes you think you can have the job?” The young man answered,I can sleep when the wind blows!The farmer thought that was a strange answer but he liked him so he hired him.

Not long after hiring the young man, a violent storm came in the night. The farmer woke up and ran outside afraid of the damage there would be to his barns and his animals. To his amazement, he found everything in order and there was no damage. He found the young man sleeping peacefully on a pile of hay in the barn. Then the farmer understood what the young man had meant when he said, “I can sleep when the wind blows.” He was fully prepared when the storms came because he had done his work well ahead of time.

How about us? Ah, some of us even cannot sleep at night. I can't imagine what would some of us do in time of troubles - when the wind blows.

Indescribably good...

Oswald Chambers wrote, “Individual lives are the expression of a pre-existing idea in the mind of God.” In other words, every human being is a unique, one-of-a-kind, never-to-be-repeated expression of God’s incredible creativity.

The point is, God thought you up, and now he lovingly thinks of you.

You are of immeasurable worth to God, and your value is not determined by your appearance or performance, or how much time or money you can contribute, or how well you sing or teach – or how long you live. The value of any container is determined by its contents, and you are a one and only, custom-made container of Uncommon Stuff – as a believer, you contain the very life of God.

God’s masterpiece is on the couch – If you are God’s masterpiece, so is the couch potato in your house, or the person at school who you diplomatically describe as “contrary.”

So, you don't need to be sexy, smart, rich or intelligent to be loved and valued by our Great Creator! Right?
