One day a preacher was driving along the old country roads and came across a beautiful farm.

the fields we’re cultivated & abundant, with well-taken-care of crops and fences. The house & barn we’re both clean, neat, and freshly painted…

A fine row of trees lead from the road to the house. Giving the farmer an abundant supply of shade to relax in with fruits to eat…

It was a beautiful sight to be seen

So when the farmer who was working in the field got to the end of a row, near the road.

The preacher called out to him and said …” my good friend, God has certainly blessed you with a beautiful farm…” The farmer stopped…

Thought for a moment …and said …” yes, yes he did & I am grateful. however, you should’ve seen this place when he had it all to himself…”

So the preacher went off and realized that all of the farmers up and down that road were given the same land. but one farmer made something great out of it.
