ARE YOU A WELL DIGGER OR A WELL-DIGGER?



Are you a well digger or a well-digger?
Do you know what the difference in the 
two are?

A well digger is a person who  
feels there is oil or water under the 
surface of the earth and they are
determined to reach it and bring
it to the surface for others to 
partake of. 

A well-digger is something that happens
when your life, family or organization 
is off balance and spinning out of control;
leaving deep grooves in the surface.

It's extremely easy to become a 
well-digger; as just living life haphazardly
will grant you just that.

The results will be a lot of debris, people 
and things destroyed leaving much 
time and energy spent to mend. 

Whereas, being a well digger takes 
planning, precision and setting thing
in the right direction with all the support 
system in place. 

The results from well digging can be
oil wells, water wells or wells of 
living water breaking forth.  

When this takes place many people 
are nourished and flourish verses
being broken or destroyed. 

As the Wright brothers were building 
the first airplane they noticed things
were off balance.  They seen the results
in the earth, as it was torn up with the 
grooves from the wings on the plane.

Not giving up they found that making 
the rudder more flexible instead of 
unmovable gave the plane what was 
needed to have perfect balance. 

The rudder was not what turned the 
direction of the plane, but was what 
gave the plane balance.  

Many times we are trying to get 
our leaders to provide balance in 
our lives but they are there to guide
us and set the course.  Often we
destroy the whole project because we 
are well-diggers instead of well diggers 
and all the while we are blaming those 
around us for the destruction going on. 

A false balance is abomination to the LORD: 
but a just weight is his delight. When pride 
cometh, then cometh shame: but with the 
lowly is wisdom. The integrity of the upright 
shall guide them: but the perverseness of 
transgressors shall destroy them.

Proverbs 11:1-3

Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, 
a great and a small.  Thou shalt not have in 
thine house divers measures, a great and a small.
But thou shalt have a perfect and just weight,
a perfect and just measure shalt thou have: 
that thy days may be lengthened in the land 
which the LORD thy God giveth thee.

Deut 15:13-15
