Yesterday I was given a gift; a timeless opportunity to ride along with my husband, on the job.
I saw many of the farms he works with.
The people. The labor.
The people. The labor.
Over at Holy Experience, Ann is talking about capturing the beauty in life. If my camera lens could capture all of what I saw yesterday, I think it just might burst! Here are some of the glorious sites I was able to “bottle-up” for you:
91 :: the bending of some corn stalks;
92 :: the beautiful backdrop of a picture-perfect blue sky;
92 :: the beautiful backdrop of a picture-perfect blue sky;
93 :: perfect rows, ready for harvesting;94 :: a slight, cool breeze waving their friendly greetings.
95 :: spying on my husband, from a distance talking with a customer on that big tractor;
96 :: the twinkle in his eye, the gift of being a “kid” on the job!
97 :: learning a little bit about combines, and the power behind them;98 :: a tangible moment of understanding, a glimpse, of your power.
99 :: some horses, enjoying the beauty of the day;
100 :: Towering power;
101 :: the smoke and the work-in progress;
102 :: a symbol of freedom flying high at the top;
103 :: a beautiful winding road;104 :: remembering how most of the time, I do not see the end, but how you always take care of me, each step of the way!
105 :: Dirt. Yes dirt.
106 :: choosing to look back and look beyond the matted ground.
107 :: remember, the work that went into harvesting;
108 :: the beauty of some geese folk, congregating together in the cool of the bright blue stillness;
109 :: appreciating the quiet;
110 :: adoring the time spent with my husband, taking in such a glorious day!
111 :: a barbed wire fence intertwined with some jagged wood;
112 :: remember the crown upon your brow;
113 :: the splintered wood upon your back;
114 :: thanking you for the perfect sacrifice of your Son!
112 :: remember the crown upon your brow;
113 :: the splintered wood upon your back;
114 :: thanking you for the perfect sacrifice of your Son!
115 :: a beautiful trio at work;
116 :: yes, a beautiful trio at work in me: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
117 :: The perfect, God-ordained timing to capture the essence of team work;
118 :: being reminded of how I need to be ever seeking to assist the body of Christ;
119 :: How can I strengthen your body, Lord?
120:: And so, November brings the harvest.

Then saith he unto his disciples,
The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;

Will YOU work among the few, for His glory?
