Trusting God!

It has been hot and humid today to finish the month of August. It is hard to believe that tomorrow is the first day of September, where has the summer gone. Fall is right around the corner, then winter.

I saw something today that was totally out of place. I was driving by the woods next to our farm and I saw a two week old fawn standing there. The reason it was out of place is because it is three months late being born. The chances of it surviving the winter are very slim indeed. But the fawn doesn't know that he is in trouble; he will trust his mother and take it a day at a time.

How often we find ourselves in situations that seem there is no way out. Like the fawn we can't do anything about it. But, like the fawn we can trust, either a friend or family member. If no one can help we can turn to the one who is always ready to help and trust Him. It is the one we should have turned to right from the beginning. Trusting God usually is last on our list, when it should have been the first.

As for the fawn, who knows, he may well survive the winter and become a great buck one day.

May God bless,

The Old Farmer
