The hills and mountains on your ways are going to be removed. But remember that’s what should happen when God gives you the shovel. Use your gifts, it’s the escape route!
The shovel is bigger than the spoon, but it can never ever do the work the spoon does. They both look similar; they both have different sizes but one more thing not to forget is that they are important in their own roles! Each is unique! You are unique too. Take the lead!
Such a shovel, it seemed a waste not to use it.

Oh that I had the opportunity to rethink so many of my decisions, for the pitfalls into which I have so frequently fallen were often dug with the shovel of those very decisions.
