I went to the Cashmere farmer’s market this morning (Sunday) and found all sorts of great fruit and vegetables. The tomatoes (pictured) are the biggest I have ever seen! The vendor’s coffee cup behind them is probably a 12 oz cup. No, I didn’t buy them, but I did buy some smaller ones! I love going to farmer’s markets this time of year as there is such a great variety of produce and flowers as well as all sorts of other homemade goods.
As we hear news reports about the effects of climate change and pollution around the world, we may wonder how long the earth can possibly last. After the Genesis flood and after the people and animals were allowed to leave the ark, the Bible tells us that God thought to Himself:
For as long as Earth lasts,
planting and harvest, cold and heat,
Summer and winter, day and night
will never stop.”
Genesis 8:22
