Peaches

This was my first bumper peach crop year. As seen in the picture, my peach tree was loaded. I picked I think close to 500 peaches. I used half of them to make fruit leather and bottle. I gave away the other half. That was a lot of peaches. But they were sooo good.

As I watched my limbs began to bow over with the weight of the peaches, my mind often reflected on this scripture.

Doctrine and Covenants 81:5

5 Wherefore, be faithful; stand in the office which I have appointed unto you; succor the weak, lift up the hands which hang down, and strengthen the feeble knees.

I am thankful for all of the support I have received in my life to lift up my hands when they have hung down and felt weighted with more than I could handle. I began to greatly appreciate the purpose of the sticks we had to help support our tree, and the sticks in my own life. Thank you to all of you.
