Today
I went out and planted some bird house gourd seeds this morning and i hope they come up. I put them below the chicken pen where the dirt is rich and if they do come up they should do well.
While I was doing the digging I thought of a man who didn't plant his gourd vine but he was never the less angry when a worm killed it.
And Jonah went out of the city, and sat on the east side of the city, and there made him a booth, and sat under it in the shade, till he might see what would become of the city.
6 And Jehovah Elohim prepared a gourd, and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shade over his head, to deliver him from his trouble. And Jonah was exceeding glad because of the gourd.
7 But God prepared a worm when the morning rose the next day, and it smote the gourd, that it withered.
8 And it came to pass, when the sun arose, that God prepared a sultry east wind; and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah, so that he fainted; and he requested for himself that he might die, and said, It is better for me to die than to live.
9 And God said to Jonah, Doest thou well to be angry for the gourd? And he said, I do well to be angry, unto death.
10 And Jehovah said, Thou hast pity on the gourd, for which thou hast not laboured, neither madest it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night:
If my gourd seed comes up an dies I will try to remember not to be angry.

You can makes lots of stuff out of them. They make good bird houses and other stuff too. I just like seeing them.
