Today's post is just going to be a couple verses that we have on HOPE.
Our church's theme this year is BE HOPE. Is it just a coincidence that the Good Morning Girl's study this season is Colossians {theme: HOPE}? I don't think so...
Therefore, as the chosen of GOD, holy and dearly loved, put on affection, compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, patience, putting up with one another and forgiving one another. ~Colossians 3:12-13a
May the God of HOPE fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in HOPE. ~Romans 15:13
Our lives here on the farm is getting busy... but it seems like we are always busy. We are in the process of harvesting all our goodies that have grown this year. Plums, pears, apples, tomatoes, peppers... Unfortunately our beans and corn didn't do very good this year.
My goal for our little farm is that we will produce the majority of the food we eat in a year. A quart of each produce product for each week... That's 52 pears, 52 applesauce, 52 beans, 52 corn, and the list goes on. But this year that isn't going to happen. Oh well, we can't go full force in just one year...
I am learning to build and be patient. Learning that it takes time to have a successful farm and that it doesn't come overnight. That we need to take steps to being self-sufficient/sustaining. We can't just get all the animals all at once, and go from there. We need to start with a few and build on to that.
I must say I a looking forward to this winter when I can enjoy some more of the indoor hobbies I enjoy, scrapbooking, sewing, baking. But for now, I am going to be thankful for this extended growing season God has given us!
Until tomorrow... May God bless your day and may His light shine through you so that you may BE HOPE!
Logging you in...
