Woke up ready to work around the property. Today is Free Dump Day how exciting!!! Picking up trash that has blown on our property from the wind. Picking up junk left by the last owners. Dead trees, dead bushes and just dead junk! My youngest two thought this was an adventure but my oldest two they have been down this road before and man did the complaining start when I handed them that black trash bag. Oh I'm tired, do we have to go, how much more do I need to pick up? We loaded up the trailer, loaded up all the kids and drove the long drive to the dump. We arrived an hour and a half before the dump was to close when we got the greatest news... The paper was wrong about the time the dump was closed. No dump day today!!! I looked to the positive and said what a great drive?
Driving back from the non productive day with a trailer full of crap I started thinking what if there was a day called Free Dump Day! A day where we could dump our stuff (luggage, baggage whatever you call it) and leave it at the dump! A stinky dirty place where we wouldn't want to pick up stuff but drop it off. I mean we just drove by and I felt like I needed a shower. A place where I wouldn't, couldn't pick up stuff and try it back on. Can you imagine the smell. Rotten Junk! A place where you know that it has been ran over with a bulldozer, shredded, and then burnt.
Why is it that when I dump my cares on God I pick them up again? How long will it take for me to trust again?
