As we prepare for the weekend just remember there are people who can’t stay inside some will have responsibilities to feed or check on livestock! Some will be out plowing! Emergency responders will still answer the calls! Lineman will try to restore as much power as possible!(heaven forbid we loose power) Please be patient with all these folk, they are trying make it through just like you and I!
A Farmer’s Prayer Before the Freeze
Tonight, we ask for mercy in the cold.
For wind that softens its grip,
for temperatures that ease just enough
to let life hold on.
Watch over the animals tucked into straw and wood,
the quiet breaths in barns and coops,
the ones who trust us without words.
Keep them warm where our hands can’t reach.
Bless the fences, the heaters, the water lines,
the lamps glowing through the dark.
Bless the tired hands that checked one more time,
and the hearts that won’t rest until morning.
We’ve done what we can.
Now we place the rest in Your care.
Carry us through the long night,
and let the morning come gentle.
Amen 🤍
