A sense of trusting and waiting in Faith for the goodness of God to shine through the trials of the drought enabling us to appreciate that we are not really 'in charge'.

Comment from Judy Couch
This is a well written story that is expressed in just 100 words. I was glad that he had enough sense to thank God for the rain he had requested.

Comment from Bill Schott
This is a story that is so basic, yet in its simplicity it says much. No one likes to test prayer, but everyone knows when it's been answered. There is no substitute off the prayers of a righteous soul.

Comment from Linda Engel
A great story of faith . just when you feel all will be taken away, you walk a little further in His path. Does God test our faith? Yes at times He does. nicely written , very descriptive and creative. A story well done

What a wonderful feat! You related a beautiful message in a few words. Something we should all think about when we write, less is more.
Some small suggestions for you to consider:
too fast, he feared.
Streams swelled through the furrows, battering the wilted stocks.

Comment from humpwhistle
I don't want to make too fine a point of this, but
deluges aren't a farmers best friend. Slow and steady rain is best after droughts. I know I'm being too literal, but that's the way it is.
I hate these word-count prompts, but I get 98.
Peace, Lee

You're right, Lee. Farmers, like most of us, prefer slow, steady rain, not deluges like they got in Colorado yesterday. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
