David’s Response to His Rejection – Psalms 31:15 – 31:24

It is Easier to Bark Than to Pull the Load

It is very easy to find fault with people or things. I once heard a story on how a dog hitched to a lawn mower stopped pulling to bark at a passerby. The boy who was guiding the mower said, “Don’t mind the dog, he is just barking for an excuse to rest. It is easier to bark than to pull the mower.” (Lou Nicholes - Missionary/Author).
