Harvest Time

"Now we're just looking for what day we're living in, the harvest time."Bro. Branham 64-1212

It's harvest time here at the farm and the farmers are working hard to get the corn in before it gets too dry.




Because of the dry weather, the corn was really losing it's moisture fast.  You can see the dust billowing out from behind this truck that was bringing in the silage.

How many truckloads do you think it takes to fill the 100ft. silo?  You can leave your answer in the comments.  I will let you know the answer in a few days.

Of course, no day is complete without something extra happening.  My farmer had to climb the 100 ft. silo because the pipe got jammed .  He was banging the pipe to loosen up the jam.  I might add a note here:  He does not like heights!  So this was not the "high"-light of his day!


We thank the Lord for a bountiful harvest.  Despite the tornado and hail storm, we had a really good crop of corn.  Uncle Eddie measured some of the ears of corn and they were between 9 1/2 to 10 inches long!
Here is a really good Bro. Branham message to listen to about harvest time.  It's actually titled "Harvest Time."  Click on the word here to listen. This will take you to The Voice of God website.
This is a picture that Uncle Eddie took of the girls showing the ears of corn.
The picture below is the same field after the hailstorm.
Thanks Uncle Eddie for sharing your pictures.
