Tonight I find myself pondering the story of the Little Red Hen and wondering how different it would be as a parable in the Bible.

everyone wants the fun but not the work

Would she have been told that ”if anyone would sue you and take your (bread), let him have your (strawberry jam) as well”?

hot and sweet

Would she have been told to remind the other chickens that “If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat”?

chicken at work

Or would she have been reminded to “aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we instructed you”?

LIFE ITSELF by Aaron Shust Before the break of dawn My heart cries out to You Where I’m surrounded by my night Here all my weaknesses will wait upon Your mercy The hope of dawn from black to white From black to white I love You more than life itself Lord, You are so good to me I need You more with every breath So won’t You breathe some life in me Won’t You breathe some life in me Awakening the dawn, with all my heart I sing to You You are the reaSon that I live Under me, over, all around I know You’re with me Never condemning: You forgive No matter where I go No matter where I stand Your Spirit always speaks to me And tells me whose I am With every breath I take And every choice I make My heart will always sing to You
