BUCKET
CAST DOWN YOUR BUCKET
The phrase and aphorism, "Cast down your bucket where you are" is really a testament to sufficiency in you, in anyone , to overcome all things that beset any upon earth .
It speaks to and of divinity in you, in any person to navigate, negotiate, whatever betides. The very lowest people on earth were at one time were our African American people.
Yet not only are we now free, but we are in ascendancy, to God be the glory for those of us who had faith enough to cast down their buckets where we are and were .
Amen.
