Gift of Finest Wheat

        Today we harvested the last wheat field for 2013.  This 26 acre field was our only wheat field, but my husband has been harvesting for the neighbors this past week.  Theirs brought anywhere from 45 to 70 bushels per acre.  We will have to wait until Monday when the elevator opens to see how ours did.  Now hopefully we can enjoy the rest of the day and do something nice for our anniversary.

       "You satisfy the hungry heart with gift of finest wheat, come give to us o saving Lord, the bread of life to eat."

         "As when the shepherd calls his sheep, they know and heed his voice; so when You call your family Lord, we follow and rejoice."

        "With joyful lips we sing to You, our praise and gratitude, that You should count us worthy Lord, to share this heavenly food."

         "The mystery of your presence Lord, no mortal tongue can tell; whom all the world cannot contain comes in our hearts to dwell."

         "You give yourself to us o Lord, then selfless let us be, to serve each other in Your name in truth and charity."

       As we celebrate our first anniversary today, may we always remember God's blessings in our lives and thank him for the wonderful gifts he has given us.
