In my daily reading of the Bible from cover to cover I am reading just now in the book of Joel chapter one the verses ten to twelve. Joel 1:10-12

There it says, “The fields are ruined, the ground is dried up; the grain is destroyed,…” “Despair, you farmers,..” “…., because the harvest of the field is destroyed.” “Surely the joy of mankind is withered away.”
