Genesis 3:17-19 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field; In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
Saturday 7/1/09 my tomato patch looked really nice. Sunday after church I found them as shown in the bottom picture...
A wasteland. Rotten branches, rotten green tomatoes...Last year it was Blossom End Rot, this year its just...rotten. I dont want to hear about Global Warming anymore. Cold nights all summer, rain, rain, rain...The weeds are really growing well though.
What seems an eternity ago I planted these little seeds in the house and they grew into these wonderful plants that dominated our front room. We endured having them in the way for 3 months waiting for the weather to get warm enough to put them out and now...theyre dying.
All that time and effort and once again...the bible is proven to be true. Glory to God!
I had lots of plans and they are all foiled now. He must have better plans. He'll provide.
Next year, I'm planting corn in this spot...maybe turnips...or potatoes....Lord willing of course.
Oh, our poor bably plants! Love your verse at the beginning it is so true, exspecially this year!
