The Preaching Farmer

The Preaching Farmer

Some people go to college to learn to preach; some go to their fields.

A farmer knows that if you sow wheat, you'll get wheat; you reap what you sow.
And no matter what you sow, there's going to be some tares included. Let them ripen - they'll be easier to pull when they get more noticeable.

There's a time to sow, and a time to harvest. Bring in your sheaves when the time is right.

It's hard to be thankful and bitter at the same time. Remember that the rain that flooded your living room can also water the fields. Accept what's offered, and make sure you are prepared for rain - wherever it falls.

Cows need to be milked even if it is on Sunday. God gave us Dominion, but there's a responsibility there as well. If you accept the privileges, you accept the duties, too.

More life lessons can be learned by looking at a farmers hands that some people will learn in their Bibles. But there's one thing for certain; the more worn either is, the more lessons that have been learned!
