Busy as a Bee
We do well when we learn to be busy as a bee.
For a free lesson in useful activity, watch honeybees. They don’t just buzz around. They find food and water for themselves and their hives (bee community). They also help us.
You heard me right. We need bees. Don’t kill them.
We use their honey, honeycomb, and beeswax for food, makeup, and more.
Farmers need bees to pollinate their crops. Without bees, we would not have as much food or as many food choices.
Can you imagine life without flowers and their wonderful smell?
In addition, honeybees communicate by the way they fly. Their flight patterns give directions and other important information to the rest of their hive.
Honeybees complete the tasks they were created to do.
In the process, they help others, near and far.
If only humans did so well. Are you busy as a bee?
“I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received” (Ephesians 4:1 NIV).

I think I am as busy as two bees. Having been away from home more than 85 nights since April, on track for weight loss, and having to prepare an exhibit of my China collections (12 years worth) any plan went out the window early on. It will go up in a 1200 sq. ft. gallery. I had a 90-60-30 day plan, but hit a wall in the first month. When I finally got at it, the plan had lonely 20 days to completion: November 2nd is the deadline. At the moment, I am resting because of a serious back-ache, breathing deeply, and slowly working on the displays. Judith coopy
Wow, Judith, I’m exhausted just reading your schedule! Prayers that all goes well between now and your deadline.
