About This Quote
In the book of James, chapter 4 of the Bible, we read about a man who was trying to convince his brother to give up his sinful ways and turn to a life of righteousness. As the man spoke to his brother, he used some metaphors that seemed unrelated at first. He compared a person who was living a life of sin to a field that needed to be plowed. The first farmer would need a plow so he could get down into the ground and break up the muck.
If he didn’t have a plow, then he would have to stop and start all over again. In order for someone to plant seeds or reap crops, they needed a good plot of land on which to plant their seeds or plant their crops. The metaphor is actually pretty simple like this: You can’t do anything well unless you’ve got the tools necessary to do it well.
