Taking A Look Inside Of A Mine 8/3/2022

 Good Morning. 

This day is starting very early for me and I am drinking my cup of Door County Inn Keepers Blend Coffee later this morning. It is now time to write. 

2 Timothy 3:16-17 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17. that the man of God may be complete and equipped for every good work.

Our grandson was a young boy when we decided to tour and old copper mine in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.  The guided tour was an exciting time for any kid and he thought it was quite an adventure. Each time he saw something shiny he would say "I wish we could dig that one out. We could be millionaires". I would just agree and did not know how to tell him that copper did not have that high of a price per pound.

As with every tour, they all come to an end and always leave you wondering about the area they did not take you into. What would you find there? This mine was abandoned because the type of copper it held was very hard and difficult to remove. A profit was hard to come by. It left many a miner discouraged and broke. 

There is something else I like to dig into and extract every bit of what it has to offer. I like to mine my way into and through God's Word. There are precious words of peace, hope, happiness, and instructions. Like other mine tours, it always leaves you wanting more, but it never closes and is open to you 24 hours a day. The more you dig, the more you are enlightened. Old mines are very dark, but God's mine enlightens hearts and souls. I invite you to experience the Word of God and mine away the  precious words stored there just for you. It will never leave you discouraged. 

Think about it and dig in!
