Looking for something fun and relaxing to do after supper? How about unloading 111 big bales of straw? That's what me and my farmer did last evening. What's a farmer without a farmer's wife? It's good we got it finished last night because little did we know that a storm was heading our way.
Working together as a team! I held the bales with ol' Mater (that's what we call the old tractor) while the farmer poked the bales with the forks. He took two at a time.
Around 3:00 a.m. a storm blew up and knocked branches out of the trees, scattering lawn chairs, ladders, and barn doors. The worst thing is that some of the corn went over in a couple of fields. Some is snapped off or out of the ground. There are some stalks that are just bent over that will pop back up eventually. The electricity tried to go off about 4 times but thank the Lord it stayed on. My farmer really didn't want to go out at 3:00 in the morning and hook up the generator!
"Lay upon Him for He is the only Foundation that's has security. But you are secured in Jesus Christ. As long as you're in Him, you're safe from the storm. He is the only Foundation."

Oh my! Thank the Lord for protecting you all. We'll pray for a good corn crop, in spite of the damage.
I saw the straw truck loads heading in the farm lane as I was setting on the porch.
As for the storm. It's like "here we go again..."
I sure like the quote you posted!
Wow! Those are big loads of straw. Sorry the rain came with a storm, but thankful God kept you all safe.
