Greetings farm followers! Brrr! 37 degrees this morning here in the Upstate of SC. Winter is on the horizon and the farm is entering its sleep season. We have put our meat birds in the freezer and praise God we have food stores that will keep us into Spring. We processed a large GC ram and we have a freezer full of grass fed lamb as well. Next week Lord willing we will process two of our Beltsville Small whites for Thanksgiving and we will sit down and give Thanks to our God for ALL His blessing in 2020. It has been a difficult year for us all. We lost a dear brother-in-law a week ago to complications from Covid-19. His wife my dear sister has entered into widowhood and we are rejoicing with her that he went home to Heaven. Though her pain of separation is real God has continued to comfort her and we will gather this weekend to mourn together as a family and finally lay his earthly body to rest. Pennsylvania is a bit of a drive but we trust we will travel on the wings of Heaven as we deliver the message to their family that God cares. This virus certainly has taken its human toll and we trust not one will perish out of the sight of an almighty God. We are a nation full of evil. I say that unashamedly because I see the content by the Holy Spirit’s illumination of my own heart. We murder millions of babies in the womb every single day in America! Every perversion under the sun is practiced in our land and celebrated. Hate fills our eyes, we see it everywhere. Yet I hope! I hope that my God who hears from Heaven will cleanse us from our sin and heal our land. America was founded by God for His purposes and He will decide when we fall. Nevertheless my trust is completely in Him and I shall not FEAR what man can do to me.
We look forward to 2021! Excited for new horizons. Looking to advance my baking business and taking on a a few milking goats in the Spring. Making arrangements to have our heifer Zoe bred so we can have cow’s milk before the end of the year. We hope 2021 will be the year we can sell our farm here in SC and build a new home wherever the Lord leads us. With our freedoms under attack logistics matter. So not ruling out SC but looking at other options. Folks we are NOT Spring chickens anymore and whatever days we have left we want to live out in peace serving the Lord. Most of our children and grandchildren live here and we would miss them all but whatever God decides we do. Exciting times!
Please note we will begin moving ourselves off Facebook permanently beginning January 1, 2021. We have already set up a page on MeWe both personally and for the Farm and Einkorn groups. I am on Parler @inthebeginningbc and also on Rumble. I am still trying to understand these platforms and as I do I will hopefully be able to expand content respectfully. Please folks follow us there. You can always text my cell if you need something.
Thank you for reading my post your following matters and I am thankful for every one of you!
