"I have not departed from the commandment of His lips; I have treasured the words of His mouth
more than my necessary food." (Job 23:12) "Open my eyes, that I may see Wondrous things from
Your law." (Psalm 119:18)
A city dweller moved to a farm and bought a cow. Shortly after he did, the cow went dry. When
he reported this fact to a neighbor farmer, the farmer expressed surprise. The city man said he was
surprised too. "I can't understand it either, for if ever a person was considerate of an animal, I was
of that cow. If I didn't need any milk, I didn't milk her. If I only needed a quart, I only took a
quart." The farmer tried to explain that the only way to keep milk flowing is not to take as little as
possible from the cow, but to take as much as possible.
Let us glean as much as possible from our Bible study and worship so that our spirituality will never run dry.
