Our Eggless Ducks

I have had more trouble with myself than with any other man. – D.L. Moody

The above quote seemed to be fitting for this post – it seems the one person I have more trouble with is “yours truly”.

Recently, I wrote a short post titled “We’re Mighty Proud Of Our Girls”. The post was informing all our readers of our egg-laying ducks. This morning, I would like to give an update on how many eggs we have received since that post. Are you ready? Brace yourselves…

ZERO

That’s right, folks – ZERO eggs.

The other day, I had to confess to the girls that the Lord had convicted me about that post. And, since this is a public blog, I feel I should apologize on here as well. Failing to give God the glory for something as small as a duck egg may seem minor…but not to God. I sure don’t want to be the one responsible for God withholding future blessings from my family.

“Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you.” Jeremiah 5:25 

“Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD: though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished.” Proverbs 16:5
