The miracle of Easter has
come again.
And with it comes the joy
of living on a farm in that
most beautiful season-the
time of planting.
The miracle of
resurrection comes to far
mers, not only at Easter, but
with each tiny seed placed in
the warming ground for
sunshine and rain to nurture.

A seed contains all the
elements to bring forth
complete and abundant life.
But the seed, itself, must die,
so that the proper order of
Nature can allow that new
life to begin. From death
comes life.
The birth of a seed, like the
rebirth celebrated at Easter,
is an encompassing, thrilling
drama. One tiny bit of
matter, one spark of life, is
faced with incomparable
odds to overcome if it is to
survive.
Overwhelming enemies
wait at every turn as the tiny
hope of corn, wheat, and
barley seeds send out the
first blades of green. Like
raising a child, the farmer'
parent of the crop can help it
over some obstacles.

herbicides, like antibiotics
against human diseases, can
, be emerging,
babes. 'Bat, like children,
seedlings mast make the
ultimate rffort on their own,
growing inside from their
roots and stretching tall to
their maturity-And, again
like a parent nuturing a
child, 'there are .crucial
factors affecting the tiny
seeds's growth that we
simply cannot greatly
change. The final decision as
to whether a crop does or
does not grow is out of our
hands. And so the farmer
waits on fate, knowing that
he is in no way the complete
master of his destination.
But each year, the miracle
of the resurrection and the
-mirade of the time of the
seed come together again,
renewing the fanner’s faith
and strengthening him to
plant another year.
May you and your families
have a most blessed Easter
and planting season.
