Today's Photograph . . . . Mules Seldom Kick Rocks or Logs or Stumble (NPS) |
Bible Study Verse
Romans 14:13
Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister. (NIV)
Thoughts
While packing in the mountains, I noticed some significant differences between mules and horses. Yes, mules are judged to be more stubborn and a little more temperamental. But nevertheless, are more intelligent and sure-footed. Unlike some horses, mules seldom kick rocks or logs or stumble. They eat less than a horse, live longer, and can carry more weight.
Mountain trails contain obstacles or stumbling blocks. Whether packing in with horse or mule, it may be necessary to remove the obstacles from the path we've chosen for them.

Action Point
Action Point
Let us not create
stumbling blocks along our life's path or that of our brother--our
friend. Anyone who influences another and causes them to sin is a
stumbling block.
Jesus
was tender toward the spiritually weak. Be careful that we are not
judgmental toward our brothers and instead, make sure we set good
examples in everything we do.Sportsmen's Tip of the Day
When packing horses or mules, it is critical that the weight is distributed evenly on each side of the pack animal.
