LET GOD WATER THE GARDEN

A few years back we had a garden that was so big it took us two days just to hoe it out. It was a bottom where the river had been over it and you could not find a rock to even drive a stake in the ground. Talk about raising corn everyone begged for our corn and greasy beans. We had worked so hard and no rain in sight and our corn and beans was drying up. We decided to get some water hoses and connect them and try watering the garden.
How many hoses I am talking about maybe 10 of them each fifty foot long. So here we went and got them all hooked up for the next day to try to water it in the early morning.
My dad, being a preacher kept saying why not let God water the garden. I said daddy there is no rain in sight and we have got to get it watered. Why not ask him. Oh yea of little faith. I told him we would just let him do the asking as I really did not believe it would happen as it was just to hot.
We all went to bed that night and no rain and it still hot. But,............
all at once it started pouring the rain, I mean like it was going to flood. We could not believe this. It rained most of all that night. It cooled the air off and have you ever smelled anything more better that a good rain. We slept like babies. The next morning we all got up. So my dad had to rub it in. What did I tell you just ask God for rain. He is big enough to do this for you. I told you, that you would not need all of those water hoses. So we had to reroll them all back up. We went down to the garden and marred up in the dirt it was so wet. There were puddles everywhere. It took it a week to dry up. Our corn and beans made it thanks to God and daddys faith. My dad is gone now but I still remember every time it comes spring and we have a garden about how God watered our garden for us.
