The Land of Plenty

Then why don’t I have anything? or at least what I want/need/desire?

To me, a land of plenty means I can think about what I want, I can envision how to make it happen, and I have access to the materials I need to do it.

We have all these things. We have a mind. We have an imagination. We have something in our power to use. We have people around to help us and who need what we have to offer.

When you think about it, everything made on this earth began with the raw materials close to us.

That’s how last names evolved…Blacksmith, Wellman, Carpenter, Carver, Stonebraker, Shoemaker, Hunter, Potter, Goldsmith, Letterman…pick a trade!

Now days it could be…Blogger, EtsySeller, Writer, Photographer, Coach, Instagrammer, Utuber, Podcaster, Webman….trade your old trade-name for a new trade-name!

It doesn’t matter what your old last name was, take on the new name that is a better fit for today’s times and get busy!

We’ve got different kinds of trees to chop down and use in 2020, but they’re here for us.

They will build our homes. They will fuel our fires. They will cook our food. They will become chairs to sit on. They will introduce us to a whole world of new friends, and we will find our land of plenty where there is no lack!

It begins with the idea. It takes desire and courage to work it through to make it work.

Be determined. Get up. Keep moving. Fall down. Get up. Stay determined. Get moving. Look ahead. Keep your eye on your land of plenty!

How will I begin today? What tools do I already have? Do they need sharpening? Who can help me? What do I really want?

I will start small. I will commend myself for progress. God will open doors as I move forward. He will multiply my efforts.
