PRUNING SEASON - WINTER 2013

PRUNING SEASON - Winter 2013

Charity #2 & Orchardist Wayne

 

Look 'closely' and you will see Orchardist Wayne in the background, caring for GOD'S ORCHARD, preparing the trees to Produce a good crop of apples for Autumn 2013. We are also praying for a larger customer turnout for this coming season, cause we believe the LORD is going to bless us with a 'much larger apple crop' this yr., based upon 'growth & pruning conditions'; so LORD willing & weather conditions; IT'S 'all' in GOD'S hands; there is no better place 2 'bee' than in GOD'S hands.

This statement is true also for our Spiritual Condition; GOD 'prunes' us as well for HIS USE, there are certain conditions that must be according to GOD'S standards; GOD prunes the 'useless, damaged & unecessary parts' out of our lives, to be useful for HIM. As humans, we need 'constant pruning'; to know what HE wants us to be & do, we must follow HIS manual, that manual is the HOLY WORD of GOD. Romans 10:17 says Faith comes by hearing & hearing by the Word of GOD; GOD gave us that verse 23 yrs. ago for Faith Orchard. Each yr., the trees become 1 yr. older, just as Wayne & I also become 1 yr. older; so each year, it is by FAITH in HIM, that we witness 'what GOD will do in and thru this Orchard & in our personal lives'.

PSALM 46:10 says "BE STILL & KNOW THAT I AM GOD"; that is hard to accomplish, esp. when we are younger & full of life & energy, but as we grow older it becomes easier physically to become 'still', but not necessarily in our mind & spirit; there is still a constant struggle with our humanity to 'bee still' before the LORD'; so just 'BEE  STILL & FOCUS on GOD &  HIS WORD, & allow the Spirit of GOD to take hold of your  'quiet stillness'.........the SPIRIT of GOD is HIS GIFT to us !! I spelled the 'word - be' as BEE,  purposefully. Years ago I went to a Women of Faith Conference & one of the speakers, Thelma Wells said 'PRAY 2 GOD for ourself to 'BEE' all that GOD wanted us to be, when HE CREATED US. HAVE a wonderful day, for THIS IS the day the LORD has given us to LIVE 4 HIM !! AS we learn to LOVE HIM, HE blesses us abundantly, beyond all that we can ever imagine; it is HE that gives 'real purpose & meaning' to our lives.

Tomorrow is Wayne's birthday - we have 'only today-only this minute',  GOD gives us each breath we take, it is up to us to use & make of it, what is 'best', and GOD promises to do the rest, so others will be 'blessed'

Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow

The print on this photo is not very clear, the path ahead of us is 'not very clear', all we need do is Trust GOD to guide us, ASK HIM TODAY.  Proverbs 3:5,6  One of Wayne's special verses.
YOU are loved by GOD with an 'everlasting love & underneath are HIS everlasting arms' Deuteronomy 33:27

October 2011 - beautiful month

Today is the day the LORD hath made - it is Fri. October 14, 2011. October is a 'most beautiful month'  so it deserves to be written out completely   PSALM 118:24 - This is the day the LORD hath made, let us REJOICE & be GLAD in it !!
It started out as 'rainy Fri.' here at Faith Orchard, but now, the 'SUN' is peeking thru the clouds,  the leaves on the Maple trees are turning vibrant colors, the leaves are also falling. Dear LORD, please keep many of them from  dropping their leaves too soon, so we may ENJOY the color for a couple wks. longer.

By NOON time, there came another storm, the sky turned DARK GREY, winds blew strongly, the RAIN blasted the earth fiercly, then after about 15 min. the SUN shone through, the RAIN stopped, as suddenly as it began !!  ;o)  Remind yourself that whatever trials come your way, the SON of GOD, IS BEHIND THOSE CLOUDS, WATCHING OVER YOU. Also, remind us dear Father, that even  though the LEAVES shed themselves from the trees for the winter, YOU 'NEVER LEAVE US' at any season of the yr. YOU - O LORD promise to 'never us or forsake us' - Hebrews 13: verses 5 & 6 - then go back & read 'all' of  chapter 13, only 25 verses, and the last chap. of  Hebrews. ;o)

GOD'S BLESSINGS 2 you today, may 'you' SEE them when they arrive & thank the LORD for each one of them, no matter how small they may seem. GOD is the GIVER of 'all' GOOD GIFTS

 Sincerely, GOD'S CHILD from Faith Orchard

September 2011 at Faith Orchard

Sat. Sept. 17 - Started out well this morning, with a good amt. of customers coming all at one time. It's been a mixed day, with 'rain & then sunshine'. But the SON is always with us, that's the reason for this ORCHARD ! We have most of our Gala apples picked & small amts. of some other varities, compared to last yr., this yr. is somewhat less, cause of the over abundance last yr., so next Fall should be a bumper crop again, LORD willing. For anyone that has never been here before & our returning customers, I am posting some photos, which some of you might enjoy. We also have ongoing picking of various varieties almost every wk. till mid Nov., ending with Granny Smith variety. antoinette4him@live.com
