Day by day, he would take the peaches off the tree, and when people would stop, he would tell them, “They ain’t ready to pick today.” Then they would drive away.

He said to me, “Don’t let anybody tell you what you can or cannot do.” And he walked away, smiling. As I was thinking about him today, I thought of the Scripture; “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men” (Colossians 3:23). If you know what you’re doing, do it to God’s glory, and don’t let men distract you.
