A NURSERYMAN’S PRAYER 
Lord, I thank Thee that Thou hast 
called me to be a grower of trees. 
I rejoice that with Thee I can work 
to make trees fruitful and orna- 
mental. Lord, I glory in the power 
to remake them by knife and prun- 
ing shears; to cleanse and free them 
from disease; and to cultivate and 
fertilize them to sturdiness. 
And for the lessons Thou dost 
teach me daily, I give Thee thanks. 
I, too, prone to unfruitfulness, am 
in need of the sustaining fertility 
of Thy love, the nurture of Thy 
cultivation and care. My mind and 
heart are beset by devastating dis- 
eases; from which only Thy healing 
and restorative power can save me. 
God of all trees and all men, as 
these trees grow sturdy and strong 
in my nursery rows, so help me to 
grow in Thy Nursery. Amen.—Mark 
Rich in the Progressive Farmer.
