Who’s Your Partner?

One of the reasons most of us enjoy farming, is because we get to be our own boss. Well, that isn’t really true. You see, we all have a partner. God. He is the creator of the land and controller of the weather. We put the seed in the ground and maintain it to the best of our ability. He does the rest. We work together to provide food, clothing, and resources for all the rest of the world. WOW! Now that’s exciting!!

As I was thinking about this last week, I realized that if our “partner” can create land and control weather, then why couldn’t He help me through it all. Sometimes, during this time of year, I can get stressed with all the extra business of the season. Extra meals, less sleep, and more running around. I even feel as though I’ve suddenly become a single parent sometimes. But, I need to remember that we are working together with our “partner” who is helping us reap what we’ve sown and grown – TOGTHER.

So, if we are partners, then we are a team. And if we are a team, then we don’t let each other down. So don’t get weary with what we’re doing. We all have a partner who’s bigger that us. All we have to do is ask for help.
