New Job

Today I started my new job at...

The Chicks are here!

They arrived in two batches due to shipping complications. I ordered 250+ Cornish Cross but after a few losses I'm down around 240. The first batch is schedualed to go to pasture the 28th.

Northwest Washington Fair

Today my sister Laura and I went with Mrs. Weese, Kelsie and Logan to the fair. Our primary reason for going was to see and hopefully learn more about Dexter cows but there were none this year. We still had an enjoyable time looking at goats, beef, dairy, poultry, sheep, quilting, blindfold chess and watching a horse show. See Laura's blog for more pictures and story.

The Autobiography Of George Müller

Today I finished reading The Autobiography of George Müller. I was very impressed and challenged by the faith and prayer life of this godly man.

These excerpts from his diary allow Müller to tell his own story of his journey from a life of sin and rebellion to his glorious conversion. Read of his struggles and triumphs as he establishes orphan homes to care for thousands of English children, depending on God's response to his prayer of faith to supply all things.

George Müller's unwavering, childlike dependence upon his heavenly Father will inspire you to confidently trust the God of the impossible in every area of your life.
