There’s an old story about a farmer who receives a pastoral call by his minister. The
farmer loved his farm and was delighted to give his pastor a tour. He loaded his pastor into his jeep and off they went.

The Pastor, amazed by the beauty of the sight surrounding him said, “I have never seen anything like this. You and the Lord have a wonderful partnership on this farm!”
