Is there ever a time in your life when you just don’t feel
like doing anything? There are many times when people will
do whatever they can to get out of work. But when it slips over
into our spiritual life we can find ourselves in real trouble. Let
me tell you a short story about the ox and the mule.
For many days an older farmer had been plowing with
an ox and a mule together and working them pretty hard. The

ox said to the mule, “Let’s play sick today and rest a little

while.” But the old mule said, “No, we need to get the work
done, for the season is short.” But the ox played sick, and the
farmer brought him fresh hay and corn and made him
comfortable. When the mule came in from plowing, the ox
asked how he made out. “We didn’t get much done, but we
made it all right,” answered the mule. Then the ox asked,
“What did the old man say about me?” “Nothing,” said the
mule.
The next day the ox, thinking he had a good thing going,
played sick again. When the mule came in again very tired, the
ox asked, “How did it go?” The mule said, “All right, I guess, but
we didn’t get much done.” Then the ox also asked, “What did
the old man say about me?” “Nothing to me” was the reply,
“but he did stop and have a long talk with the butcher.”
Now we may laugh at the cute little story. But what can
we learn from this story? Brethren as Christians we need to do
all that we can to serve God and His Son Jesus Christ. Now we
know that God will not send us to the butcher, but there will be
a time when He sends back His Son, and that will be a time
when we will not want to be found playing sick. “Therefore you
also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do
not expect” (Luke 12:40).
