Not judging anyone, as a matter of fact I like being associated with a group of farmers that struggle with the idea of getting help from a federal government that has a major spending problem, Spending that jeopardizes our kids and grandkids future. Same government that uses us at times as bargaining chips, that at times kill our markets,
I do however notice a deafening silence on what good one might do with a portion of that money. I know many on here help in their community and give to charities... after all isn't it a great season to think about helping others?
How about if we can take 10 to 20% to give to someone in greater need? Here are some great charities, Samaritans Purse, Tunnel to towers, Preborn " alternatives to abortion" Vision for Isreal just to name a few. Or how about your local food bank / shelter or maybe a family in need.
Not many of us watched our balance sheet get healthier this past farming season, but overall, I would say most on here would consider themselves blessed.
Merry Christmas my friends, hope you have a blessed one with family.
7 Ever since the time of your ancestors you have turned away from my decrees and have not kept them. Return to me, and I will return to you,” says the Lord Almighty.
“But you ask, ‘How are we to return?’
8 “Will a mere mortal rob God? Yet you rob me.
“But you ask, ‘How are we robbing you?’
“In tithes and offerings. 9 You are under a curse—your whole nation—because you are robbing me. 10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it. 11 I will prevent pests from devouring your crops, and the vines in your fields will not drop their fruit before it is ripe,” says the Lord Almighty. 12 “Then all the nations will call you blessed, for yours will be a delightful land,” says the Lord Almighty. |
