Prayers for Rain

[princess_ballet]

I hate to ask, but can you guys say a prayer (or two) for rain?

Our family farm is desperately dry. Its been weeks since we've seen any significant rain. My dad literally gave up a couple fields because the soil was too dry either the seeds were just going to sit there or he couldn't even get them in the ground.

I guess they're trying to lay irrigation now, but of course nothing is the same as rain water. Not to mention that we have no way of irrigating the vast majority of our crops.

It isn't looking good. And no rain in the forecast.

Praying rain comes to your area soon!

Joining you in your intentions Princess. We are in full blown drought. We are under a burn ban right now & the crops look pitiful. We desperately need it.

 

[princess_ballet]

for everyone that needs it right now.

for everyone that needs it right now.

Amen. It's about 105 right now. I went out in the side yard to water some veggies & thought I was going to pass out. The ground crunches under your feet.

Even in the deep woods where they have removed some damaged trees, it's just a dust pile.

 

[S.ilvio]

I live in a country with no shortage of rain.

Praying some of it heads out to those who need it...

 

[Foundthelight]

We need it too.

Praying for you, and for all in need ~ may God bless you in His Merciful Love

*hugs pb* Ontario's having it rough right now, too. My city is surrounded by farm country, and the farmers are having such a difficult time keeping everything watered. Even my garden is dying despite my efforts because it is too hot and too dry without rain

 

[FriendlyJosh]

You definitely have my prayers

burn ban in my county, too watched a big pop up storm go south of us tonight. Somebody's luck changed, but not ours. I don't think we will have any second cutting hay.

Thanks everyone. Brothers posted a picture of the irrigation tonight. The sweet corn looks absolutely sick.

Storms are still trouble when it's dry, though. Lightning can light forest fires

We used to get around 2300mm of rain at this time of the year but the rain is staying away which is very surprising !
There is no floods because of that but, as our state depend on the Hydro electric power for 70% of the electricity, our outlook for next summer is terrifying
The reservoirs of the dams are running low already and soon we would have to depend more on the polluting and costly coal and natural gas for power
Not good :o

So, please pray for us too
And yeah, my prayers are with you princess_ballet

 

[princess_ballet]

I guess they got a little sprinkle. Not enough to do anything though.

The fireworks for the 4th have been cancelled in my town - it is too dry.

I will pray for rain. I have been watering my little garden every day (twice a day if it is really hot). I fear that food will be really expensive next year, maybe even this fall.


I had to water a bush - I have NEVER seen a bush droop.


Fireworks, my little garden and bush are not nearly as important as the farms - you and all the farmers are in my prayers.

 

[Lady Bug]

Princess Ballet, you're in Michigan like I am so I understand what you're going through. It's very hot for the forecast but no rain.

 

[princess_ballet]

Yes, it is terrible. Still no rain either.
