Good morning friends. I would appreciate prayers and positive thoughts. I am dealing with a situation that I am unable to take care of myself, and need help. Because of a complaint from neighbors, the cops came by and gave me a "warning" to clean up a section of my yard that got away from me. I can no longer do yard work, and the man who mows my yard has declined to help with this other job, and I have tried to find someone else and no one seems willing. I don't want the city on my property, and cannot afford a fine.

I know this may seem trivial, but it is very stressful on me. Prayer works wonders, I know.

Thank you.

Dave, how far are you from Tulsa? If it's within a days drive, I'll come take care of it and enlist help from my sons.

I used to give a talk to young couples preparing for the sacrament of marriage. It was entitled "Prayer Changes Things."

I oughta know, it changed me.

UPDATE - Thank you all so much. You need to know how fast prayers were answered. About an hour after I posted this comment, a nearby relative, a close cousin, came by with her pickup. She had her pruners with her. She said she would help me. I got dressed and got my loppers, and we started on this job.

Six hours later, and seven pickup loads taken to the dump site, and the job is finished. And the guy who mows also stopped by and said he would mow this area next time now too.

I'm worn out, but happy. And very very thankful to the Heavenly Father for providing the help I needed. Words cannot express my appreciation for your prayers and thoughts.

God is good! And we are sometimes called to be His hands and feet.

Prayers up, Dave. DM your whereabouts, and help is on its way. “Environmental law enforcement” is a growing specialty in sheriffs’ departments. Instead of protecting our border, they police our back yards.

God recently sent a Garden Angel (what we call her) to assist with out-of-control weeds at my husband’s office - with our home, working long hours, he was just overwhelmed. I’m praying for just such an Angel for you!! 🙏🏼🤍✝️

Interesting that the cops came out for an over growth or junk problem? Normally it’s a zoning matter and they send a letter first. Just keep in communication with them that you will comply but need time to remedy the situation. Are you in a city?

Lord, give Dave a miracle. (They come in all sizes and blessing to you.)

For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

Matthew 7:12 “So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.
