This is an Amish farm near Lancaster, PA. The Amish
depend on God so much for their bounty and lead a
peaceful, simple life.
In the fall, most farmers and gardeners reap the harvest
of what they planted in the spring. I have already taken
up our tomato plants and will take up the squash plants
this week.
FARMERS
God formed us from the dust
So, He must be close to the soil.
Farmers are in touch with God
As on their farms, they do toil.
Farmers plant the seed in spring
And they must depend on God
To bring the rain and sunshine,
As they patiently prepare the sod
They learn to live by faith,
That God will make things grow.
They are dependent upon the weather,
As they well know.
As the plants mature...
Farmers watch for blossoms fair;
It is in the Hands of God
Of that they are aware.
As they share their bounty
Of the harvest for each day
They share a bit of God,
To all who pass their way!
