Sometimes I seem to hit a slow time. I have a lot of things I need and want to do in the workshop. Some of them I consider very important. I temper that with the real fact that my workshop is just my hobby. Other real time events must come first, like taking a whole weekend just to figure out my taxes.

I also got very ill last week, upper respiratory infection. I crashed into bed rest for two days solid then struggled the weekend doing what I mentioned above. I didn’t even see Easter. When someone said, “He has arisen” I thought they were talking about me doing my taxes. I said, “So have my taxes!” What bad timing, but God understands. I remember the story in the Gospels when Jesus was asked about taxes said, “Render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s…”  Right now I feel very well rendered.

Now is the time to do the same for God.
