Cows know how to rest. Living in a rural area, I have plenty
of opportunities to pass fields full of cattle. One thing I have noticed is
that cows are either lying down chewing their cud or they are standing up with
their noses in the grass grabbing more food with their teeth.
They are not distracted by passing cars or planes overhead.
They don’t care if the wind blows or rain pours down upon their backs. They
continue feeding on the nourishment of the land because feeding is the most
important aspect of their lives. They rest in the middle of the chaos going on
around them.

| We can learn from the cattle in the field |
We are bombarded night and day with negative information
pouring down upon us like the rain that hits the back of the cattle in the
fields. Distractions pass us on the highway of daily living and the winds of
terror blow against our faith when fearful events occur.
How can we keep our thoughts from straying into the waves of
doubt and negativity with so much evil around us?
