Law of The Farm: Part 1
God is so cool. He really made life simple. We make life complicated. His life strategies go all the way back to the farm, The Garden of Eden. After “He created” the Garden and man, He “took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and keep it.” Genesis 2:15. Principle …
Law of The Farm: Plant The Straight Rows
In a few weeks, the fields will be full of tractors pulling discs, harrows, and planters. It’s spring. It’s “plantin’ time.” It’s an exciting time. The smell of fresh plowed ground. It’s time to leave the cold and drab of winter and start fresh and new. It’s a new opportunity. It’s new life and the …
Law of the Farm: What Is It?
Unlike many of the “world’s laws, God’s Law of the Farm is simple and works every time. It has been in existence since creation. It has never failed. And like God’s Word, never changes. The law says, “A man reaps what he sows.” Galatians 6:7 When my dad wanted to harvest rice in one field, …
God School: “Sleepless”
It’s 3am and you can’t sleep. The question has been creeping up on you for the last few weeks…you can’t seem to shake it. “Is this all there is?” Afterall, you have worked hard and have been very successful. You are respected by your peers. You have achieved financial success and want nothing. People seek …
Will It Be Enough?
I started using “Cliff Notes” in high school when we studied Shakespear & Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales. I used Cliff Notes because the material was hard to understand, I didn’t like to read, it took too much time and country boys don’t do things that are not manly. “Cliff Notes” enabled me to gleen enough information …
God School: “I Just Thought I Knew…”
I remember when I thought I had it down…all figured out. I was charting my own course. Poor grades and even flunking out of college after 3 years didn’t phase me. From age 18 – 37, I lived in my apex of brilliance. Failure was just part of the process. My theme song was “I …
The Law Of The Farm: The Soil
The remarkable thing about soil is that it does not care what is planted. It will give as much effort to grow weeds as rice, soybeans, or corn. Dad’s seed supplier provided him with the ancestry of the seed and the confidence that the seed was not contaminated with weed seed. A bad batch of …
God School: Too Big For My Britches…
I can still hear dad’s words, “Boy you are getting too big for your britches.” As I think about it, dad was correcting something deeper than the stupid thing I had done…it was my heart. He saw his son developing an ungrateful & stubborn heart. I do not recall dad getting upset with the things …
God School: 76 Years Ago, Today…
Oh, how I wish I could ask mom & dad some questions. One would be, why… they put my cake, with 3 burning candles in the middle of the yard? As I look back at old pictures many were taken outside. Yesterday our family celebrated my birthday. While I did not have a cake outside, …
