Today was a beautiful, windy, sunny, 75 degrees. A very enjoyable day to be sure.

My brother helped me pull a hill of tomato plants, it's kind of sad to see them go after all the care poured into them throughout the summer...but that's life and they did give us a good harvest. So, right now I am praising the Lord for a good summer and yet am a little sad to have it pass.

Monday is chicken butchering day. : | It's not my favorite thing to do (in case you thought otherwise), but we might have some friends helping us this time, so for that I can : ) .

Here is a little poem that was encouraging to me today.

Teach Thou Me

That which I know not teach Thou me.
Who, blessed Lord, teacheth like Thee?
Lead my desires that they may be
According to Thy will.

Kindle my thoughts that they may glow,
And lift them up where they are low;
And freshen them, that they may flow
According to Thy will.

That my desires and my thoughts, be according to His will....yes!
