The eagle who believed he was a chicken

Once there was a young eaglet that accidentally fell from the safety of his nest high on the mountain. Miraculously, he fell in a patch of soft grass and survived. He stumbled out into the open and a farmer saw him and brought him to the farm and placed him inside a chicken coop with all the other chickens. Since the eagle had not yet discovered his true identity, he started watching the other birds and naturally followed their habits and doing what they did. So many people have been wrongly influenced by trying to be like others and for some it has ruined their lives. He was growing stronger and more beautiful every day, but he had not yet discovered the revelation of who he was and what he was called to be.

It’s not crazy to follow God

When Jeff and I first started dating, needless to say, we were young and stupid. (Perhaps that is why we are still together) we were just 13 and 16 yrs old. After 43 years of knowing him, the other day he told me “You are so crazy!” as we were joking around. I responded “ Well maybe that is why I am still here”

The joys of summer gardening

Peaches are best when ripened on the tree but fruit growers may wish to pick a bit early to prevent damage from birds, have a higher pectin content for jams and jellies or to have firmer fruit for canning. Peaches that are mature enough to pick are still hard. They do not give when lightly squeezed. However, these peaches will ripen off the tree and will have very good quality.

Softball teams in Pratt have successful summer seasons

Pratt softball teams of all ages have had solid 2022 seasons this summer. They traveled to a variety of places and learned many new things about the game. Softball age divisions and baseball age divisions differ slightly. Softball age divisions only go up by even numbers; for example, 8 and under, then 10 and under, then 12 and under. This means that there are less teams available in Pratt, and one might have to play up a year in some cases.
