These plastic eggs can be found in stores everywhere. We use them in Children's Church as a reward for memorizing Bible verses. They are filled with "goodies."
Today they are being used for something else. Life can be filled with all kinds of things to do, bombarding even the most self controlled person. God does NOT expect us to do everything, even when they are good things to do. We have to learn to have balance in our lives and do what He desires, not what we or other people desire of us. Even Moses, from the Old Testament, learned to delegate responsibilities.
Lately we have found that our "basket" is becoming too full of good things. Each egg represents something that needs to be done...but not necessarily by us. As we pray and seek the Lord's guidance, those "eggs" that we don't need to concern ourselves with are tossed out. But watch out, someone may try to put an egg in your basket that doesn't belong!! The "eggs" we are supposed to work with will stay and "hatch" in God's perfect timing!
"Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not." Jeremiah 33:3
