I am only here to tell you about one thing. It was amazing that we started this event by thanking the only one that allows every breath that we take, to step in this building and every other building by giving Him thanks. We started by prayer to Him. It’s a Sunday. Even if it was Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday, everything we do is either in worship to Him, or rebellion to Him. You think about everything that you do either glorifies God, or glorifies yourself. Christ told us deny yourself, pick up your cross and follow me. This event, this industry, this competition, this thing that we get to do, He has blessed us with. Indiana, he has belssed y’all with this amazing group here, this facility that is brand new, the one that Nick and I got to work through all these kids the past few days... that’s a blessing from God abaove. Take it and use it. This is an amazing industry that we can teach and grow and train our kids to do ethical things. To do hard working things. To learn responsibility. That is extremely good and extremely right and we can use that. A gentleman
earlier said; ‘we just use the pigs in this instance, or the cattle, or the sheep or the goats to raise our kids. Use them to raise your kids in Christ. To teach them about Christ. The hours that each of us get to spend with our family in the barn. All of that time how valuable is it when we’re all in tune together, in sync as a core family. Mold your family. Doing something that you enjoy... as a following people of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior, take the advantage of the blessings that He gives in a relationship with Him... the only thing that matters is eternity. This pig show is a short time. He gives us every breath that we have. He can take it at any moment. He can bless us. Continue to worship Him in everything that we do. This is the most amazing platform that we can do to make our children understand that and grow in Him as well.
