Welcome back as we end the week with some farm safety.Agriculture ranks among the most hazardous jobs in the world. Farmers are at very high risk for fatal and nonfatal injuries; and farming is one of the few industries in which family members (who often share the work and live on the premises) are also at risk for fatal and nonfatal injuries.Did you know about 84 kids die each year in accidents on farms, according to a new study, and 26,570 are injured badly.That is why it is so important to us not only as Farmers, but as Mothers to educate those on our operations, our kids and to all of you! You can never have enough education on safety in our eyes.

When tragedy struck Hunter Pinke's life at a young age of 22, the thought "Why Me?" Only crossed his mind for a couple days. With the help of the verse Proverbs 16:9 that the Lord showed him months before his accident, he was able to flip his mindset as has said "Why not me?" for over the last 1300+ days.Listen in to his story and how he is taking on life in a new mindset and using the new door God has opened for him.Find him below:https://www.instagram.com/hunter_pinke/https://www.hunterpinke.com/Follow his Mom:https://www.facebook.com/search/top?q=katie%20pinke%2C%20the%20pinke%20post

We are excited to have her on the podcast and to chat something we had put on our hearts to chat about, praying with our children and for ourselves. “I realized that the deepest spiritual lessons are not learned by His letting us have our way in the end, but by His making us wait, bearing with us in love and patience until we are able to honestly to pray what He taught His disciples to pray: Thy will be done.”-Elisabeth Elliot

July was a long month for us both.Farm work is still in full force with a lot going on in Kansas and Missouri. But we decided to leave the farm solo and meet up halfway with 6 kids. Are we crazy? Maybe. But the time spent together is priceless.It is HARD to do this. But we feel like doing things like this, gaining some independence and getting off farm leaves us with a full heart opposed to a bitter one for never leaving. We find value in doing things that will better ourselves and challenge us. You can do hard things!!
