Chris.
The Lord makes us like a polished arrow. It is good to ponder on a polished arrow. Firstly, it is clean. Secondly, it is ready for use. Thirdly, it is concealed until it is to be used. We should ensure that, as those people who love and serve the Lord, we should be clean. We should, at all times be ready to do the Will of God. We need to be faithful, hiding humbly until the time comes when the Lord's Purpose for us is revealed.
