Save This Farm











Ahhh, Sunday. No matter what your beliefs everyone needs to take time to slow down. My day is Sunday. It is a day to spend a little longer in the sun on the deck enjoying coffee, trying not to count the bruises on my leg from a long hard week. (5). A day to reflect on the past week and gather some perspective. We know we can't change the world in a week, but maybe a dent has been made.


It is amazing how quickly your world and your prioritizes can change. Two weeks ago rain was something that interfered with a picnic, now it is something so necessary prayers are being said on its behalf. Farmers have always been at the mercy of the weather and this year it seems especially true. Floods, droughts, tornadoes, hurricanes and late freezes have caused hardship for farmers across the country. As you take the time this week to enjoy your day of rest, take a minute to send up thanks for the people working the farms (they need it).


Some items of interest:


1) Thunder does not equal rain


2) Dogs can sleep anywhere


3) Things that keep you up at night can change in a heartbeat
