[Discoveries] 05-08-08 Harvest -- Revelation 14:16

[Inspiration in Your Inbox]

/*So he who was seated on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and 
the earth was harvested. -- Revelation 14:16*/

In the middle of the Great Depression, my grandfather, with borrowed 
money, bought a farm. It was a useless tract of land on the bluffs 
overlooking the Mississippi River. In town they called him a fool. $500 
was an outrageous price to pay for 385 acres that would never produce a 
crop.

"Barker, you're going to lose that farm," they told him.

His eyes always twinkled when he told me that story.

When I came to live on the farm 28 years later, it was a paradise.

I don't know what the angels thought when God undertook to redeem the 
fallen human race, but now God's day has come. The fields are ripe. 
Harvest has come.

And I believe, somewhere, there is a twinkle in God's eyes.

Be encouraged!
Dwight
