When I got to the Irrigation Ditch today, I found Bilbo holding onto a branch shaped like a wishbone, a hatchling swimming in the water next to him. I know Bilbo just posed for a sketch, but if he were human and knew what wishbones were, would he have wished for a new shell that would grow with the rest of his body?
Maybe animals don't expend energy wishing; they just go about getting the day's necessary food and shelter.
"You don't know what tomorrow holds," we're told in James 4:14. Maybe, instead of wishing for things; we'd be better off ascertaining eternal food and shelter today.
Please pray my cousins, at their father's funeral today, would do so.
