OUR CORN AND PEANUT

It is a great feeling if you can have a good harvest from the trees that you have planted . It was a great moment for us when we are having a good harvest . Bro Daniel , his daughter Naomi and Hux was helping us to collect some of the corn and peanut at our plot of land nearby the orphanage. It is so easy to buy and to cook ( boiled or friend with hot sand) but it some how different if you are getting from your own land and your very own tress. I can not agree more with bro Daniel and Hux upon saying the “delicious sound” of brrrrt when we up rooted the peanut trees out of the soil and breaking the corn from its tree are so unique and able to give us such a joy upon doing it . From our orphanage land alone we were getting some 3800 corn already and from the farm we are getting a lot more corn by folds and folds. Praise The Lord for making us self sufficient and even more which the word exceedingly and abundantly is happening to the orphanage. For the corn we having two types , one is the normal corn that we ( the local ) eats and the other one is sort of a sticky type which we call it locally as “jagung pulut” or sticky corn. Its color is all white and when we cook it , it will be much softer than the normal yellow color corn.
