A carpentry shed
from Daily Picture Hosted by Stephanie Hawkins
Today I saw a carpentry shed, reminding me that Jesus had grown up learning some woodwork skills from his carpenter fatherJoseph (Matthew 13:55) and Jesus had indeed been referred to as a carpenter (Mark 6:3). Jesus forsook his carpentry, continuing to obey God's will: "Now Jesus himself was about 30 years old when he began his ministry..." (Luke 3:23) as did the disciples who forsook their jobs as fishermen, a tax collector etc in order to follow Jesus. None of our skills and experiences are wasted but God does want us to follow the example of Jesus and trust in His guidance in where He wants us to go.
