them from the snares of the evil one.  It seems as if with each year,
there are more and more going the down hill road to ruin.  And my
constant prayer is to live to raise my children to be honest, virtuous, and
to be workers in the vineyard of the Lord.  God has granted my request
and I have had very bright testimony of this work."

a very good crop.
