 HEAVY CLOUDS

Today's reading: Ecclesiastes 11-12

"When the clouds are heavy, the rains come down." Ecclesiastes 11:3 NLT

We've wrapped up the harvest season on the grain farm I work for doing bookkeeping.

Blood, sweat and tears have been shed--in an effort to get crops in, cared for and out of the fields and in thanksgiving for a bumper crop, safety and good health during the year.

There have been a few trying times...

Wondering if the rains would stop.

Wondering if the rains would come.

Mechanical failure.

Attempting to procure parts for the mechanical failures.

There were a few days when the rainclouds hung heavily over the farmers heads and hearts.

BUT, the heavy clouds bring the much needed rain!

I am blessed to watch this group of believing farmers continue on, trusting the Lord in all He sent their way.

What a lesson for me. 

What a lesson for this thanks-filled day.
