“Take care of your lambs, girl.”
Those were his last words to me.
My grandad passed away yesterday.
For the past few years he lived close to the farm.
He drafted plans for chicken coops, helped install sheep fencing, and would always tell me how good my flock looked. He loved lambing season and would daily ask “how many new ones today?”.
I am grateful for the time we had with him… but more than anything I’m grateful for the Gospel we were able to share with him. I want to share the following verses straight from the Bible and I hope you’ll take time to read them.
“For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.” Titus 3:3-7
Life is short no matter how long you live. If you know Christ, share Him with others; if you don’t now is the time to seek Him.
I’m going to be taking a week off of YouTube and social media. Small Farmer Virtual Meetup will also be postponed until December.
I’ll be spending the extra time with my family and taking care of my lambs :).
