Please Pray.

Wednesday, October 29, 2008


Please pray for rain for us. If we don't get rain by tomorrow our crop will fail - not fun. I put off writing this post because I haven't had time to get down & take photos of the crops - I will try to add some later. So between the locusts & the drought - well let's just say - we know that God is in control & He has the best plan - but please, please, please join us in our heartfelt prayer for rain for this whole part of Australia that is suffering.

Prayers are on the way. Sounds like a horrible situation. So sorry to hear things are difficult. I am saving my candy bar for one of those chocolate moments of HELP! Same with the candle. I appreciate it sooo much.
I'm thinking lots of rainy thoughts for ya'll. Heck, I'll be happy to send the stuff we're to get your way. We need it too but not so badly.

Saying a prayer right now. Hoping the crops are saved, esp. since I know how hard you have all been working.
You are in my thoughts.

Just sent a prayer your way! Hope you and all those farmers who work so hard on the land get the life-giving rain they need!!!! I get so mad when I hear people talk about the life of a farmer being a 'rich' one (monetarily speaking). I know from my own very small experience that you and other farmers work their behinds off on the land to supply us in the city (who do nothing but go to woolies grrr). Good years are not regular and when they do come are very deserved! And there hasn't been many good years for so long now - I hope the rains come soon!!

We've been praying for rain daily for the last 30 months! We'll say an extra prayer for some rain on your town & crops.

My husband was out your way a couple weeks ago and he said it all looked fairly green. So that bit of rain we had earlier in the month wasn't enough, obviously.

The forecaste is thunderstorms and rain tomorrow!! Praying you'll get a decent drop, without the destructive winds.

sending lots of prayers your way. This part of NC was in a drought not so long ago. There was a point we were being told our town only had about 30 days of water left! Sending lots of prayers and doing a little rain dance for you!

joiced when you said it was raining today. Will keep praying that the Lord will send enough to keep crops alive, and to top up dams, and water tanks. Keep hanging in there and trusting the One Who knows where every drop of rain falls. We're also praying that in these dry times, Aussies might start to realize just Who it is that supplies our every need! Lots and lots of love to you all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hey, Renata,

I'm sorry to hear you have such dire circumstances going on at home right now. I wish I could blow the rain clouds toward you. I will do my best by asking God's hand in the wind.

Your photos just get better and better - you truly tell a story with them.

Please keep us posted...
