Living the Dream

"Chicken multiplication! My husband and I raise breeding poultry (yup, chickens).We have been building up the business over the past year and have been waiting for a return on the investment. We have been hoping that this spring they would start laying more, and we would have more product to sell. We have 300+ chickens but some of those are juveniles, chicks and roosters. But we were expecting more than the five or so eggs we were collecting a day.

In worship at school, I felt like the Lord invited me to bless the chickens. I realized that I had had a, "Well, I'll wait and see if this is going to be profitable before I jump in," mindset and I wasn't really supporting my husband. So I went all out and blessed those chickens to feel safe and welcome. I blessed them to be comfortable, to be healthy, and to start laying and to multiply.

One to two days later, we collected 2 dozen eggs. Three days later, we collected 3 dozen eggs. And yesterday we collected 4 dozen! My husband made $700 with them in one week! And it keeps increasing!"
