A Lite, Nourishing Approach for Healthy, Hydrated Hair. Sullivan’s
Revive LITE
NEW!
TM
Revive LITE™ features ALL of the great conditioning properties of our ever popular “original” Revive, just in a lighter, more refined approach. This formula doesn’t weigh the hair down. Great for any time of year, but especially valuable during warmer months when hair coats become thinner. You will love how light if feels in the hair with a rich, unbeatable deep shine. The extra light cosmetic grade oils contained in Revive LITE do not glob or allow the hair to stick together. This actually creates added lift to the hair with more hair separation. When applied, this new formula lightly coats and easily penetrates the hair and absorbs into the skin without clogging the pores and less likely to rinse away. By absorbing easily into the skin for outstanding nourishment, Revive LITE does not sit heavy on the skin heating up your animal. Revive LITE is also fortified with Sullivan’s advanced VITA HAIR Nourishing Vitamin Package to infuse the hair with proven hair vitamins for natural moisturizing to create soft, manageable and stronger hair coats. A new science breakthrough for fresh, healthy, hydrated skin and hair.

Hair Savior™ adhesive breakdown features a proprietary blend of the purest, mild cosmetic grade plant-based ester technologies to naturally attack and gently remove adhesives and touch-ups away from the hair without any harsh stripping action. Containing Sullivan’s VITA HAIR™ nourishing vitamin package, Hair Savior™ is the first liquid adhesive breakdown product with added hair vitamins to hydrate and regenerate the hair.

SMART SENSATION the
by Sullivan’s
The Smart Sensation is like no other. The advantage of the SMART SENSATION is how it amplifies the volume of the hair as it lifts it up from the hide without causing curls, kinks or matting that is often associated with rice root or massage brushes. You can actually see the Smart Sensation brush create hair separation off the skin allowing air to flow deep into the hair base for added hair stimulation. Healthy for hide and hair, the SMART SENSATION gently massages the hide to stimulate blood flow that releases natural oils from the skin to coat the hair and promote healthy hair growth. The Smart Sensation is available in two different sizes. Regular size with seven rows of teeth, and the XL with 10 rows of teeth. Cattle love the feel of the stimulating SMART SENSATION!

DETAILS
THE DIFFERENCE IS THE DETAILS. n everything you do in life, pay attention to the little details. Details are often the difference between winning and losing. They are what make something great, something unique. Many people can go out and purchase an expensive calf, but few pay attention to the details that are the difference in just winning your class and winning the entire show. It is being consistent and paying attention to what matters. It is being dedicated to feeding your livestock at the same time every morning, washing them every day, cleaning their pens and always giving it 100%. Sometimes this means giving up things that would be fun to do. Many people will go out and buy a nice calf, but then just throw it some feed and not make sure they are treated and cared for correctly. When we were getting animals ready for the Colorado State Fair we were consistent every day. We found that animals like routine. We weighed them every morning, and every night. We never skipped putting them in the barn. Every day
was about managing them to hit their target weight on show day, have the right amount of hair, and be trained to show. It is important to get to the show early, and be the last to leave. You may give up your entire summer and do it right, and still not win. More times than not, paying attention to the details will set you up with a better opportunity to succeed. This can be applied to everything in life. Whether it is your school work, your livestock or your job, always give your best. Do you want to just be average, or try your best to excel in everything you do. With every issue of The Showtimes, we push to top our previous issue. While it would be easy to just throw an ad or layout together, we always strive to make The Showtimes the best magazine. We hope you enjoy our July/August 2014 State Fair Edition! Good luck at the state fairs, Brian J. Reid Owner/Editor

After 23 exciting and fascinating years I am officially retiring from my duties as Colorado Department of Agriculture Colorado State Fair Livestock Manager and Sale Coordinator as of March 1, 2015. You may have noticed that I was contemplating this time when I stopped working twelve to fourteen hours a day and started working only eight to ten hours a day or less and taking a lot more vacation time.
This was practice for my retirement years. Actually, self-confidence showed me how to work fewer hours and to be just as productive. I want to be able to take a “summer” vacation, spend more time with my family and grandkids, travel with friends, and do all this without a walker, wheel chair or oxygen. My years have been filled with great friendships, every emotion possible, rewarding and
36 THE SHOWTIMES JULY/AUGUST 2014
discouraging, carefree and tense, delightful and hateful, loving and sharing, but all these have been accomplished as a team, as I could not have done it without the support given by each and every one of my staff, friends, loved ones and family. I have enjoyed watching families grow in the Ag business for 3 generations, I’ve seen the positive from each participating 4-H and FFA of Ag youth, whether winning or losing. I’ve shared tears and greeted happiness, but you all have been winners in my eyes. I thank everyone for all the support, dedication and devotion you’ve given me and my department, through the years, and hope you will continue. Leaving will not be entirely easy. I have loved my job and all the wonderful experiences as I will miss each of them dearly. I have genuinely enjoyed working with our great staff, and my good friends here at the Colorado State Fair and Colorado Department of Agriculture. Even though “Sometimes I felt I was being replaced by a computer, but at least its feelings won’t be hurt when it gets criticized for a statistical error”. I look forward to the opportunity
to still serve the Colorado State Fair as a consultant, and sale advisor. I feel this is one of those “fullness of time” moments, the past is a heritage we can all be proud of, grateful for and continue to build upon. The present is dynamic and strong and the future is bright. Always stay focused on Agriculture and commit to your missions. I will always be thankful for the ”Joy” everyone has given me… this is not a good-bye, it is an “I’ll see you soon” partner! - Jeanne Thank you Jeanne for everything you have done for the Colorado State Fair and everyone who shows in Pueblo! We have many great memories from the Colorado State Fair! Our family has enjoyed getting to know you over the years showing. We wish you much happiness. - Jim, Betty, Brian, Laurie and Lisa Reid

KAYE REITZENSTEIN IN ADDITION TO MY DAY JOB, I’M ALSO A STOCK SHOW MOM—IT’S NOT SOMETHING YOU WILL FIND ON MY RESUME, YET IT HAS BEEN ONE OF THE MOST REWARDING THINGS I HAVE EXPERIENCED AS A MOTHER. BY KAYE REITZENSTEIN, COLORADO
M
y name is Kaye Reitzenstein and my husband, Mark and I have two children, Kyndal (20) and Austin (16). We live on a small farm in northeastern Colorado and our kids primarily show cattle but also show pigs and horses. Along with my brothers and sister, I also grew up showing cattle and met my husband while showing at the state fair. 82 THE SHOWTIMES JULY/AUGUST 2014
In the same way that many kid’s activities have changed, back then we were able to show cattle with a little less—less time, less money and less travel. However, that didn’t mean we enjoyed it any less. Many of the friends we made and lessons we learned are still instilled in me today. I am a Director of Finance for Crop Production Services and I truly believe that growing up on a farm
and showing livestock are strong foundations for success at any job. In addition to my day job, I’m also a stock show mom—it’s not something you will find on my resume, yet it has been one of the most rewarding things I have experienced as a mother. As a family, we have traveled across the nation showing and have met
some incredible people along the way. Some of my favorite shows are the National Western Stock Show and the Kansas Beef Expo. I recently attended the World Pork Expo and between the laid back atmosphere and the barbecue pork, this show may also be added to my list of favorites soon. Some of my best memories include Kyndal showing Peaches, her Charolais composite heifer to a 3-time Championship at National Western, Austin winning Grand Champion Hog at the Weld County Fair in only his second year of showing pigs and Kyndal winning the 2013 Colorado State Fair steer show.
"I AM VERY THANKFUL FOR THE PLACES WE'VE TRAVELED, THE FRIENDS WE'VE MADE, THE LESSONS WE'VE LEARNED AND THE MANY ACCOMPLISHMENTS WE’VE BEEN ABLE TO ENJOY AS A FAMILY."
In addition to showing, livestock judging has also been a big part of my kids’ stock show success. Some of Kyndal and Austin’s travel for judging, including Gunnison (CO), Kearney (NE), Kansas City and Louisville. All are fond memories. I especially appreciate seeing kids do well in judging, not only because they learn how to select their animals or because forming and communicating opinions are important life skills but also because their results are solely based on their and their coaches’ efforts, not on any amount of money, product or outside help. I also have to admit that I really appreciate the livestock judging scholarships that Kyndal is using to attend college. All of these have been learning experiences for my kids and I love that stock show exhibitors have so many opportunities today. They can go to fitting clinics, stock show universities, cattle camps and even watch television shows to learn more about showing livestock. However, I’ve realized that being a stock show mom is equally as challenging and I wonder what it would be like if there were a similar school for us. Here are a few things I thought they might want to include in the training: JULY/AUGUST 2014 THE SHOWTIMES 83
STOCK SHOW MOM SCHOOL LESSON PLAN
1. Picture the most perfectly groomed steer or heifer you've ever seen and then think about how similar it is to everything we want as stock show moms-the best hairdresser, a little dye, just the right amount of makeup and a timely pedicure. The next time your husband gives you grief for a trip to the hairdresser or the nail salon, just smile and give him a thumbs up and be proud of the fact that your beauty experience is much less expensive!
manure is picked up to how the aisle is swept and washed down are in fact the same ones that refuse to keep the house clean. Be aware that something strange happens to them on that walk between the barn and the house.
2. All of us get to do chores sometimes when they are gone. If you think cooking is a challenge, it's nothing compared to feed rations. Take your most difficult recipe, add 10 ingredients, stir it up and be ready to change rations in a few days.
5. Oh and speaking of the laundry room, buy Febreze in bulk so that you can use it when you return from a long show. Otherwise, the memories of the week will fade long before the aroma does.
3. The same humans that are so anal about things in the barn, ranging from how the
4. Learn to get creative with the hair products they use. The same products that take glue and paint out of cattle come in very handy in the laundry room.
6. Don't forget how you learned to run on no sleep when your kids were infants. That training will come in handy when you are
I'm sure there are many other things that could be added to this list. Whether you’re good at fitting legs, doing tails, making lunch or sewing show shirts, you could qualify to be a professor of the stock show mom school. In fact, the only real qualification is that you care enough to do whatever it takes to help your kids care for and show their livestock. Showing livestock is a team sport and sometimes our job as show moms isn’t easy but one that’s well worth it.
asked to drive all night to a cattle show. If you’re really lucky, you’ll also get to help set up once you arrive. 7. When your kids are old enough to drive and take care of their own animals, things get easier on show day. However, don't expect much more sleep. The texts and calls start coming in as soon as they leave asking you to stop and pick up items or bring things they forgot. I think one of the strangest things I ever had to stop and get was industrial earplugs—try finding those in the home improvement store! Oh and yes they were for the cattle not for the humans. 8. Lawn chairs are especially nice to have at a show. However, do not take these same chairs to an indoor sporting event. The shavings that fall out when you open them and the barn smell are guaranteed
As my kids are nearing the last few years of their show careers, I realize the days of a stock show mom will end soon. I am very thankful for the places we've traveled, the friends we've made, the lessons we've learned and the many accomplishments we’ve been able to enjoy as a family. My stock shows have now spanned a few decades so it’s fun to see that many people I showed with have kids or even grandkids showing today. There is something uniquely challenging yet rewarding about showing livestock that continues on for generations. I can only hope that my kids have enjoyed the ride as much as I have so that someday they have kids who want to show too. By then Mark and I will have had a few years off and we might have to look for some tips on how to be stock show grandparents. ▪
to alienate people quickly. You may get a front row seat but you are guaranteed to be sitting alone. 9. Because most of our free time is spent at stock shows, we don't sit around and do "nothing" very well. Therefore, nonlivestock vacations are a disaster. Save your money and plan on going when the kids are gone. 10. You can never take or buy too many pictures. A dad who lost his daughter at an early age once told me that pictures are all he has left to remember his daughter showing. I will never forget that and often use taking pictures to get away from the stress on showday. 11. If you are lucky enough to marry someone who also showed livestock, don't assume
you grew up doing things the same way. Learn what you can from them and pick your battles. I realize this is the same lesson they teach in Marriage 101 but for some reason it is especially difficult to master in the barn. 12. Showing pigs and horses were new for both my husband and I and I can empathize with all the moms who didn’t grow up showing livestock. When I don’t know the difference between a good one and a great one, I am a cheerleader at best. Learn as much as you can about how good your kid’s animal is--sit with them at judging or watch the shows at ringside to see the difference. There is nothing better than the adrenaline rush that comes from knowing how good your kids’ animal is and realizing they may have a shot at a big win.
13. Find something at every show to do for you. Whether it's meeting up with an old friend for lunch, shopping at a unique store, going to watch one of the ticketed performances or just slipping away to see the new products in the trade show, it will make your time more enjoyable. Everyone can tell the difference when Mom is happy! 14. By default, you are the chief mediator. Showing livestock is stressful and siblings can be the best of friends and the worst of enemies-- all in the same day. Negotiation skills are key. 15. Relinquish all responsibilities of kids and animals to your husband on sale dayenough said.

DAVE SHARES HIS THOUGHTS ON SPORTSMANSHIP AND SHOWING LIVESTOCK. BY DAVE GUYER, IL
88 THE SHOWTIMES JULY/AUGUST 2014
We all like to win and no one likes to lose! But good sportsmanship is of great importance. As many of you all know my girls are active in showing hogs as well as cattle, so I see many shows throughout the year. One thing I hate to see is a young person put their stick or whip down to their side, drop their head, and walk out of the ring. Now don’t get me wrong, because if someone is disappointed, that usually means they care and want to do better, which is great. But save that disappointment to after you get out of the ring. You would be surprised the impression it makes on the judge as well as the people standing on the outside of the ring. On the opposite note, when you don’t show good sportsmanship, you can’t
believe how that will haunt you for a long time before you can overcome it. Let’s talk about those good impressions. I have told my kids from a young age that you can’t replace good impressions and how important they are. For instance, when a judge or anybody for that matter talks to you, you need to look them right in the eye and answer or reply to them. When you shake their hand, do the same and look them in the eye and give a good firm hand shake. Now I said I have preached this to my girls and here just recently they realized that it does make a difference and it ain’t just their ol’ man rambling on. Recently Mr. Dan Hoge came up and wanted to tell me something about my girls… he said “When those girls of yours shake
your hand you know you have got a hold of something and when they look you in the eye you know they are out there in that ring to conduct some business.” I very proud fully laughed! So making good impressions can be very important. Now let’s talk a little sportsmanship. Like I said earlier we have been showing some hogs, so I have had the opportunity to see another species side of sportsmanship. And there is a difference so here it is. When one of the species get done with the show, people hang around the ring, take pictures, congratulate others, and give hugs as if you were part of the family and sometimes there is even tears. The other specie I hate to say that
the only ones that are left around the ring when it gets over is the winners and if you were to run into somebody back in the barn they will wave and only then say congratulations. I will leave it open for you to decide which one is which, and which you prefer, but I like the family feel. If you don’t know those winners, you better get to know them so you can better yourself. Whether you like it or not, they are doing something right. I probably am a little old fashioned, but if there were anything I have done that I would like to go back and change, it would have been a few good impressions, and some sportsmanship related situations. You never know when someone, whether it is a youngster trying to learn, or a pillar of an
industry that has set a legacy like a Mr. Hoge, is watching and taking mental notes. Quote for this month comes from Mike McCoy, “Hustle as hard as you can for as long as it takes till they no longer have to introduce you.” Remember when you are making your choices in feed that we highly recommend Show.Rite Feeds to feed your next champion. Have fun and good luck at all the upcoming county and state fairs. See ya at the shows! ▪

WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT
beyond the backdrop
GRAND CHAMPION OWNED ANGUS FEMALE BY CALLI ANN WEST, PARIS, TX
M
y name is Calli Ann West. I live in Paris, Texas, with my mom (Lalonna West), my dad (Cody West), and my brother (Rex West). I’m 14 years old and I’ve been showing Angus cattle for 3 years now. Before I showed Angus, I showed Beefmasters for around 4 years. I got into showing from my older brother; he showed Beefmasters. I loved watching him show and I wanted to be just like him and show my own heifers and so when I reached the acquired age to show that’s exactly what I did. My brother and I showed against each other and sometimes we got a little too competitive, but in the end, we both congratulated each other no matter who won. When my brother graduated in 2011, didn’t think I could show anymore without my partner in crime, and I’m not going to lie; I didn’t know what to do without him for a while. I loved the Beefmaster breed, but heifers with hair always mesmerized me. My dad had the same feeling I had and so that year when my brother graduated, we went and bought my first Angus heifer.
PHOTO CREDIT: AMERICAN ANGUS ASSOCIATION
Now, Angus heifers are way different than Beefmaster heifers, so our daily routine changed dramatically. With Beefmasters, they aren’t supposed to have a lot of hair like Angus heifers do. We had no idea what we were doing and so my dad asked around for help and that’s when we met Jason Lindgren. He agreed to help us out and get us on our feet and get started in the Angus world. He has helped us for four years now and he and I have gotten close. When he first came along, I was shy and I didn’t say much too him, and it took my two years to finally start opening up to him. He and I can tell what the other is thinking without even saying a word. He’s become my best friend and I
don’t know what I’d do without him or what I’d be like if my dad had never asked him to help us. Jason was with us when we went to look for my first Angus heifer and well at the end of that day; we had found my first Angus heifer. We got her from Doug Satree and we named her Berta. My first year showing went better than it could have gone. We liked how we did, but just every show family: we wanted to win, so we went to look at some more heifers and that is when we found Express Ranches. Through the years we have found so many amazing heifers and without those heifers, I wouldn’t be where I am today. As I got older, I started
JULY/AUGUST 2014 THE SHOWTIMES 141
NOW More Owned Heifers
wanting to be able to do more to help around with my cattle so, I asked and Jason told me that he and I could catch together in the morning and do our daily routine. I wanted to do more, but this is when I still was shy around him, so we didn’t talk much. If he wanted me to do something, then I’d do it. As time went on, our routine got easier and easier for me: I would get up and be out at the barn around eight in the morning because that is the time when Jason would reach my house from his house (he used to live about an hour from me). We would mix feed, catch the heifers when they finished, tie them up, wash them, and blow-dry them. That’s been our routine for three years now, but we’ve added some new features. We had a new barn built to hold all the new cattle and added pens to blow-dry them and just have a fresh start to our new breed. The next feature is my favorite! We have this stereo that you can hook your phone up to and so now we have music to listen to and to work to. I’ve only been showing Angus for three years and I still love the fact we started showing them. With showing a lot of changes happened: my time at school, my time at home, and just hanging out with friends. I don’t mind missing some time with my friends because I love showing and it’s my life. My friends know that and they are fine with it and understand. My schoolwork is still good even though I miss more days than a normal person. I’m an honor student and I strive to keep my
grades up so I can show and to get into a good school later on. Besides cattle, my grades are the next important thing for me to focus on. I’m not a big sports girl. I used to play basketball, but it interfered with showing too much, so I quit playing. The only sport I can play and like is volleyball, but if it came down to it, I’d choose showing over volleyball hands down. Showing has made me open up and make so many new friendships, become more open to trying new things, and have a bond between amazing animals. Volleyball could never compare to that. I have been so blessed to have everything I’ve been given in life. This show year is definitely one of the things I’ve been truly blessed with, but none of it would’ve been possible without Cinderella, my heifer, coming into my life. She has truly become my best friend. I know that sounds weird, but I’ve never had a bond between another heifer like I have with her. When she came into my life, I never imagine the impact she would have in my show career and in just my life. Because of her, I’ve become the person I am today. I’m just a young girl chasing a dream that she’s nearly able to reach and with Cinderella’s, Jason’s, my parents’, my brother’s, and my family’s support, I have gotten so much closer than I ever could have imagined! I want to thank all of them very much for what all they’ve done. I honestly couldn’t have done any of this without them and I love them all so much and I’m so blessed and thankful to have them.

Working on the family farm and showing livestock has taught me to set high goals, work hard, and treasure family and friends. When I was eight years old, my grandpa bought me my very first Hereford heifer, "Sweet Pea" at the National Western Stock Show. Ever since, I have shown Herefords. I have been
fortunate to be able to show at the last three Hereford Junior Nationals, amongst other state and national shows. It was truly an honor to be named Champion Horned Hereford Heifer at the 2014 National Junior Hereford Exposition in Pennsylvania. I could not have reached this goal without the support of my family, friends and the Hoffman Ranch. Congrats to all of those exhibitors who exhibited and participated in events. It is a memory I will never forget!

Cheramie VIATOR
F MY LIFELONG GOALS ARE SIMPLE...TO RAISE GOOD CATTLE AND GOOD KIDS.
BY CHERAMIE VIATOR, LA
rom June 14 to June 26 my travel schedule looked like this: Berryville, VA to picture bulls for Select Sires; Wheatland, WY for Silver Spur to help with breeding heifers; Grand Island, NE for the North American Jr. Red Angus Event; Lincoln, NE for the Beef Improvement Federation meetings; Denver, CO to judge the Regional Jr. Hereford Show and to Kiowa, CO to go through Silver Spur spring born calves. And don’t forget… in the middle of this Summit Farms has an Internet heifer sale and Brinks Brangus at Westall Ranches has scheduled their first production sale. No, not every two weeks is like this for me…but not far from it! What started out in South Louisiana as a 4-H project has grown to a lifelong passion for the beef industry. I was fortunate that my Uncle Jimmy Landry, Paul St. Blanc and County Agent, Andrew Granger, taught me
184 THE SHOWTIMES JULY/AUGUST 2014
about feeding cattle, showmanship/hauling show cattle and judging livestock respectively. Additionally, my parents instilled a work ethic in me that I am proud of today. All of these folks and many, many others have guided, taught and mentored me throughout my journey in the beef industry. Not many who are my age can say they have led, fed, bred and sold cattle from California to Maryland. (Oh and I can’t forget my tenures with a U.S Congressman as an Ag staffer and State Soil and Water Conservation Board before I came back to the beef industry.) Today, I own a cattle consulting / marketing/ photography business that has expanded
predominantly from my experiences at Camp Cooley Ranch and Silver Spur Ranch. At Camp Cooley Ranch I was fortunate to be a part of what I believe was one of the best teams ever assembled in the beef industry. While we focused on raising and marketing Brangus, Angus and Charolais cattle, the ranch owner challenged each of us to reach new limits and achieve goals we thought were impossible. The number one thing I learned during my eight-year tenure at Camp Cooley Ranch was the difference between perfection and excellence. We can never achieve perfection in any way but we can strive for excellence and be perceived as an individual of character. Being raised in the South instilled in me, an appreciation for heat tolerant
breeds. At Camp Cooley and today at Westall Ranches, I continue to understand and respect that there are areas / environments in our country (and world) where a small percentage of Bos Indicus influence (Brangus, Red Brangus etc) is necessary for cowherd efficiency and even survival. The key to making this work for the cowman, packer and consumer is to maintain selection pressure for carcass traits (IMF and muscle) along with other traits. At Camp Cooley I was challenged to market bulls in TX, LA and the Western United States. It was this challenge that really began to teach me the importance of matching cows to their feed resources and production systems. At Silver Spur Ranch my responsibilities grew over time and I was eventually involved with genetics, marketing, age/source/ GAP/ All Natural certifications

and audits, herd inventory and strategy for the 15,000 head cowherd. I was challenged to assist with developing a cowherd that could survive with minimal feed resources, at high altitudes and be able to produce cattle that worked in the feedyard and on the rail. This might seem like a fairly simple task but in reality this has been one of my greatest challenges to date. I have driven thousands of miles looking at bulls, their dams and ranch production systems trying to find genetics that would work at the Silver Spur Ranches in Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico and Nebraska. In too many instances I found genetics that were based on big growth 186 THE SHOWTIMES JULY/AUGUST 2014
SPUR MYSTERY MAN
spreads (hence too high energy requirements to survive in a minimal feed resource system), had feet/structural challenges and simply could not survive at altitude. Altitude tolerance was something quite new to this Cajun. I spent many hours analyzing PAP data and listening to Dr. Tim Holt. Finally reality set in and we began to develop “The Silver Spur Ranch Cow / Bull�. With the help of many at Silver Spur, we are able to track, analyze and identify which cattle survive in these tough environments. It is those cattle that we have centered our foundation herds around.
breeding program, the yearling bull development program and breeding cattle that perform in the showring/Silver Spur production system. Annually, we A.I. 2000 -3000 heifers in several states. This has challenged me to be very organized and seeing progress/ change in the cowherd has certainly been rewarding. This year I initiated the Bred Heifer Connection and will market almost 2000 commercial Red Angus and Angus bred heifers for Silver Spur and Summit Farms. My confidence to do this emerged from my experiences with the Spur heifer breeding project.
Three projects I am most proud of at Silver Spur Ranch are the heifer
When I started at Silver Spur Ranch, there were minimal
CHERAMIE'S DOG IZZY
performance measures recorded in the registered herds. Today, they have a system in place where all yearling bulls are gain tested, fertility checked, ultrasounded, PAP tested and branded. Even more important is that they can now track and identify bulls that excel in the commercial herds and bring them back to the registered herds. This may seem pretty basic for many operations…but when you consider that we turn out 200 – 300 yearling bulls annually and a total of 750 bulls it is quite a task implement, track and utilize all of these performance opportunities. While I no longer work for Silver Spur Ranches on a full time basis, I still guide their genetics and assist
with registered and commercial cattle marketing. Silver Spur has one of the most unique production systems in the country and I am grateful for the many opportunities they have given me. My experiences at Silver Spur Ranch taught me this…. In reality there is a large percentage of the country’s cowherd that forages on ground that is not usable for any use other than grazing. These cattle have to be sound, fertile and be able to work in all segments of the industry. Truth be known, cattle that excel in IA, IN, KY are very likely not the cattle that will excel in west TX, NM, WY or NV. The sooner we come to recognize this in the beef industry, the
sooner we will be more effective in our breeding programs and use of genetic prediction tools. Many of my mentors have taught me that common cattle sense goes a long way in the cattle world. I try to teach young people to watch the cattle because they will tell you the story… no matter if it is show cattle, cattle in a pasture or cattle in a feedyard… watch the cattle, they will tell you the story! I realize many of the young people who work for me will say that I am really hard to work for because of this common sense expectation. But one of the greatest rewards I have is for “my kids” to become successful and come back to thank me for instilling this expectation. JULY/AUGUST 2014 THE SHOWTIMES 187
"WATCH THE CATTLE, BECAUSE THEY WILL TELL YOU THE STORY." I am fortunate to have a wide range of experiences and opportunities in the beef industry. From serving on the National Jr. Angus and Brangus Board of Directors to winning the 1989 National Jr. Angus Showmanship contest to every mile driven to shows, hours at the barn, tears, hugs and worn out rice root brushes everything has contributed to my successful career in the beef industry. Today, much of my life is dedicated to my consulting/ marketing business. Traveling to Summit Farms (IA and NE), Brinks Brangus at Westall Ranches (NM), Bradley 3 Ranch (TX), Jeffries Land and Cattle (OK) and Silver Spur
gives me wonderful opportunities to pursue my ranch photography passion and writing for Beef Today (Farm Journal) magazine. I even own a few cows. Thanks to my mom and friends across the country, I never have to worry about my cattle as I gallivant across the country! Along the way, I get to mentor and work with many young people who show cattle and are passionate about the beef industry. I even find time to judge a few shows each year and often close with a challenge to exhibitors… You have an opportunity to create our future in the beef industry. I hope you will recognize our real customer is the consumer. Each of you can make a difference by telling our beef story to those who are not engaged in our industry. Finally, I have had two internships that were life changing for me. Serving as a Congressional intern in Washington, D.C. opened my eyes to the importance of being active in legislative process. And back in 1989, my internship at Bradley 3 Ranch established the foundation for my appreciation, passion and love for performance measures in cowherds. My initial education about ultrasound, feedyards, packing plants and value based marketing all started with this internship. Today, Mary Lou BradleyHenderson has become one of my closest friends and I try to live by her simple statement, “Do the right thing”. Minnie Lou Bradley, Mary Lou and James Henderson challenge me to uphold traditional values in all that I do and in my business.

My lifelong goals are simple….To raise good cattle and good kids. Thus far, I’m having fun creating profit-oriented cattle that work in their environment. On the kid part, well, I’m having fun teaching and spoiling all my friends’ kids!

KIRK STIERWALT DISCUSSES IMPORTANT TIPS ON GETTING CATTLE USED TO EATING AND DRIKING AT THE UPCOMING FAIRS. BY KIRK STIERWALT, OK
SAYS
With state and county fair season well underway, getting cattle used to eating and drinking differently can often be overlooked. Here are some helpful tips to make sure you and your cattle have a great fair experience: • Get your cattle used to eating out of a feed pan and drinking out of a bucket at home. Introducing new feeding implements at the fair can backfire and your cattle won't eat or drink properly. • Once you get your cattle used to the feed pan and bucket, it is extremely important to take the same ones you used at home to the fair. Rubber and plastic retain smells and taste, so the buckets and pans will be more familiar to your calf and it will respond better. • Once you fill your calf ’s water bucket, let it sit idle to settle for a little bit because cattle seem to drink it better after it rests. • If you use electrolytes, Kool-Aid, apple cider vinegar, etc. in the water to help your calf drink, do this at home as well to get the animal used to it. People often add these types of supplements to water to mask the chlorine of the city water at fairgrounds. Some people even add chlorine tabs in their water at home to get their calves used to city water. • Allow for at least two hours concentrating on fill on show day. We take several feed, hay and supplement options to the show with us so we can find the right combination for proper fill. If you don't get your calf filled up, the fitting you do won't really mean anything.

FUN FACTS - The Kansas State Fair is the largest single event in the state. The fair annually attracts approximately 350,000 people from all 105 Kansas counties and several other states. - The Fair was greatly influenced by World War II. There were booths at which fairgoers could buy war bonds and stamps. "Scrap Day" was declared during the 1942 Fair - over 32 tons of metal to aid the War effort were collected by offering free adult admission for 100 pounds and a free childs admission for 50 pounds.

The site was described as eight to 10 acres with grass slopes, shade trees and numerous tents. The grounds were enclosed by a 10-foot-high board fence.

CLIP LIKE A PRO BY WEAVER LEATHER LIVESTOCK MT. HOPE, OH
WE ARE EXCITED TO BRING YOU PART 2 OF OUR TWO FEATURE ON HOW TO CLIP LIKE A PRO! YOU WILL LEARN HOW YOUR CALF IS PUT TOGETHER AND THE PROPER STEPS TO CLIPPING EACH AREA. A SPECIAL THANKS TO WEAVER LEATHER LIVESTOCK AND KIRK STIERWALT! 294 THE SHOWTIMES JULY/AUGUST 2014
Welcome to the second installment of Clip Like a Pro. In Part 1 featured in the June issue of The Showtimes Magazine, you learned why clipping your calf is important, the equipment you need, clipping terminology, blade types and how to take care of your clipper blades. Here in Part 2 of the special feature we will break down the color-coded calf shown on the Stierwalt’s Strategy for Success: Clipping Like a Pro poster. Throughout his many years of experience in the cattle industry, Kirk Stierwalt has developed a successful clipping system that he divides into five phases. Even if you may have been to a Kirk clinic and seen his expertise in action, this diagram and corresponding chart can help you determine the parts you will be clipping in which order, points on your calf to identify to aid in the process and the recommended blades for each part. The best part? You can cut the following diagram and chart out of your Showtimes Magazine to keep as a handy reference. We recommend using this information as a supplement to the Stierwalt’s Strategy for Success: Clipping DVD, the Guide to Showing

Beef Cattle: Clipping how-to on our website and the full size Clipping Like a Pro poster that you can redeem with any qualifying Weaver Leather Livestock purchase. Before jumping in, however, we have several quick tips from Kirk: • Use Stierwalt Chalk to mark the important areas of your calf as you move from one phase to the next as shown in the diagram. Doing so is a great way to get to know your calf ’s conformation strengths and weaknesses and what will need to be clipped.

296 THE SHOWTIMES JULY/AUGUST 2014
• Always start clipping on the off-side (left side) of your calf. Judges typically see the show side (right side) of your calf, so should any clipping mistakes be made, it’s best they happen on the off-side. • Remember, all calves are different, so each calf may need to be clipped differently. • Breathe and relax. You will make mistakes, but that’s okay. It comes with the territory; however, the more you practice, the better you will get. Seek help and advice from others who have more clipping experience… it’s the best way to learn! Now that you're ready to get started, the following information will also help you as you look at the diagram and chart.
H
High areas on calf that get clipped upward and across at a 45° angle.
L
Low area on calf that does not get clipped, only tipped for blending.
T
Areas that only get tipped.
N or No Low areas that do not get clipped, only
tipped for blending.

WHEN IT COMES TO SHOWING STEERS, FEW HAVE COME CLOSE TO ACCOMPLISHING WHAT BROCK MAY HAS DONE IN THE RING. BY BRIAN J. REID, THE SHOWTIMES MAGAZINE
Brock May is a true competitor. Many know Brock for his many national champion steers. If you have had the oportunity to show or stall by him at a show, you have seen first hand a different side of him. Brock has always been humble. It is easy when you are winning and on top. What really stands out about Brock is how he is when he doesn't come out on top. Brock is always the first person to congratulate a fellow exhibitor that wins the show. He is always kind and always there to help someone when they need it. That is what makes Brock an easy choice for The Showtimes Hall of Fame. Brock May has shown numerous national champions, ranging from prospect shows like the Badger Kick-Off Classic, to major accomplishments such as winning the American Royal three times! He was selected Reserve Champion in Denver in 2007, and followed it up with being named Grand Champion just four years later. In 2012 he pulled off a rare feat of winning both Grand and Reserve Steer at the Wisconsin State Fair! Brock's

NEW MEMBER
cattle were always well fed, highly presented and were 12 o'clock on show day. Anyone who shows cattle, knows the hard work and dedication it takes to compete at that level. Now that his junior showing career has come to an end, Brock can be found helping his younger sister Lauren with her steers at shows. Congratulations Brock on being our latest Hall of Fame member!
WHERE HE IS NOW
This past spring Brock finished two years at Lincoln Land Community College in Springfield, IL, where he was a part of the judging team. He is home for the summer working steers with his sister Lauren, doing cow work of his own and helping his dad Bob with his cows as well. He has also continued to do some fitting demonstrations for Weaver. Most recently he has been to Urban, OH; Escanaba, MI; and Indianapolis, IN for the Angus Jr. Nationals. He also judged a county fair in Shelbina, MO! This fall he will be heading to Stillwater, OK for school.

MILES TOENYES
DRIVING TOWARDS A GOAL TO BE SUCCESSFUL, YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE MINDSET THAT YOU CAN BE! BY MILES TOENYES, HIGHLAND, ILLINOIS
328 THE SHOWTIMES JULY/AUGUST 2014
from the industry
I
grew up in Highland Illinois, Son of Joe and Debbie. I have a sister Heather who has 3 children Britni, Brenen, and Blaise.
I come from a long line of hard workers on both sides of my family; not just the men, but the women too. Agriculture has been deep rooted into my family. My mom didn’t have a real livestock background but her dad was from a big family. Although he was the youngest, he took care of them all as he owned his own repair shop. My mom is one of the strongest women I know. Still delivering mail six days a week and making sure things are done at home. My dad, on the other hand, had a group of 50 commercial sows and farmed with my grandpa all growing up and at one time when I was very young. When the markets fell and pork production began to turn upside down, however, he was forced to sell out and pick up a job in town driving a mixer, then boom truck, and finally started his own business. My uncles, Scott Toenyes and Keith Toenyes, began raising hogs together and were very successful at the county level. Scott continued his passion of show pigs exhibiting with some of his great friends, Brian Diesen and Jared Frueh, as he worked a fulltime job for Mr. Bill Range in the early-to-mid-90s. It seemed that every chance I could get I would beg my dad to take me to show with my Uncle Scott. I
remember being young and looking at all the plaques and trophies in his room just wishing they were mine. In 1995 I exhibited my first pig at the Madison County Fair here in Highland. That slowly began my journey. We used my dad’s old farrowing house as a show barn. It was not anything like today - the only climate control it had was if the power was working and a fan could run! We traveled all over the southern part of Illinois to each county fair that would pay enough for us to go to the next one. I remember many nights that we would leave late after my dad and uncle got off work to travel to a county show, because in Illinois, most counties are open. At that time, it wasn’t about a fancy rig or shiny truck. In fact, we drove Scott’s extended cab F-250 to every show and slept in it. Over those early years I had the opportunity to drive some great Yorkshire barrows that surfaced from Dale and Chad Rhoads of Indiana and a lot of halfblood Peitren hogs that came from Bill Range. I was at the tail end of that lifestyle showing JULY/AUGUST 2014 THE SHOWTIMES 329
livestock; an opportunity that many young kids will most likely never get again. I truly believe it’s what grounded me, taught me respect, and a work ethic. In the later 90’s my Uncle Scott decided to creep away from the hogs and continue his job selling trucks. However, he kept a few sows around and we showed a few. On Christmas morning 1998, I woke up and my dad brought me to the barn where two Yorkshire gilts stood at the fence. I looked at him with total surprise when he said they were mine. “Holly” and “Molly”. Probably two of the biggest, frailest, ugliest old gilts you could find now, but then they were gold to me. From there it just continued my love for hogs. It was winter to early spring of 2004 when my Uncle got a call from a great friend of ours saying Illinois was going to start a “Jackpot” circuit and we needed to get in it. I had no idea what it meant, but it sounded awesome - and I got to show all over Illinois! That spring I remember traveling all over. I went to the Dale Miller Family, Gene Webers, Armstrongs, Brett and Todd Beyers, many sales, and the list goes on. We were just trying to find what we liked and not really having a clue what we needed! After we rounded the pigs up, many were taken to Jared’s and many came home.
330 THE SHOWTIMES JULY/AUGUST 2014
"I TRULY BELIEVE IT'S WHAT GROUNDED ME, TAUGHT ME RESPECT, AND A WORK ETHIC." The very first show I remember was in Princeton, Illinois and it was packed! A great friend of mine now, Will Winter, judged. Quality ran deep and people had no idea what was really going on because it was a first for many! There were many of mornings after that on that summer’s weekends that Scott and I would get up to head to jackpot shows. We had a successful summer in 2004 and I had the taste! That fall my Uncle asked me if I wanted to raise hogs. Obviously, with no hesitation, I said yes! It was a weekend shortly into August when Scott showed up to my grandma and grandpas with a trailer load of Yorkshire gilts from Jim Grimm. I just remember these beasts coming off the trailer looking almost identical in terms of size and muscle. When we got them into a pen in the lean to Scott looked at me and said they were “ours”. I spent many summer nights there at my Grandma and Grandpas, both with Scott and by myself, looking through old boar catalogs and searching the internet reading
pedigrees and talking to other breeders about what to use. In 2006, we had another successful summer winning the barrow points overall and got to pull home a brand new trailer. This trailer was like a new house to me. I was used to our ‘88 Sooner with wood sides, constant flat tires, and rotted floors. In fact, I remember many barrows sticking their heads out the side of it when we were going down the interstate! I recall that summer seeing Mike Mccoy judge in Yorkville at and ICPA show. Mccoy was famous to me - like Michael Jordan was to other kids my age. He was in an orange button down shirt. I had on almost the same shirt and told myself that one day I would judge in it. To this day I still have it, but unfortunately it doesn’t fit the same! The fall of 2006 we went to Tracy Lorenzens and Jim Grimms again to purchase more Yorkshire females. I’m sure not even Mr. Grimm remembers this, but I wanted to purchase a gilt myself from him so I could put it in my record book in High School. We loaded those gilts that day, and he told me to just take her. He said, “Miles, this gilt is valuable and will make you a sow herd if you breed her right.” That September I bred her to a boar at Bill Ranges called “Building Blocks”. He was a purchase Bill had made at the Illinois State Fair from the Brinkmeir Family. In February she had her litter. I knew they had to be good, but wasn’t sure, so I decided to keep them all (which I’ll tell you about shortly). Summer 2007 started with a phone call in May from one of my greatest mentors, Seth Swenson. Seth asked if I wanted to come work at his house and learn more about boar studs and having large numbers of sows. Seth had an online sale that spring where there was a gilt I wanted so badly that brought $2,000, but there was absolutely no way I could afford that - heck that was what my whole show string cost! When I got to Seth’s in June there was a Yorkshire gilt that I couldn’t take my eyes off. After my tour Seth said, “oh yeah, that gilt is yours. She’s the one
from the sale.” I couldn’t believe it, he had kept her for me! That whole summer I lived back and forth between Seth’s and Jared and Jill Fruehs’, two other people that are some of the most influential people in my life. Jared is like a brother to me and has always pushed me hard. I would go to shows on the weekends with his truck and trailer then come back to Swenson’s. That York gilt that Seth kept for me ended up showing under Jim Mccoy at the 2007 NJSA Summer Spectacular. She was 3rd overall York and brought $7,000 in the open show to Cox and Craft! I didn’t know how much better the summer could get until we got to August. That spring I went to the Dale Miller Family’s house where Matt had given me a pig that was a little sick. All summer long I fed him and nursed him back to health. One of my other dads, Dennis Wilber, sat in my backyard and with a big smile told me, “Miles he’s got a shot.” Two weeks later he ended up winning the Illinois State Fair. Al Christian and Al Snedegar called him “The Future!” We won the gilt points overall and then the following week we took two crossbred boars to Indiana. Both won their class and brought great money. That fall I had champion Bred and owned gilt at the NJSA Southwest Regional in Texas out of the sow from Grimm. A gilt that went on to be Reserve Overall under Lee Denzer at the Eastern Regional in Pennsylvania! It is safe to say that 2007 was one for the record books!!
We took a trip to the Southeast Regional with a couple barrows. We ended up having champion barrow that year with one we raised and my nephew showed. A big opportunity arose when Jennifer Shike approached me and asked if I ever had any interest of being on the NJSA Junior Board of Directors. I loved every show we went to through the NJSA. I went to every one of the regional shows that year from Pennsylvania, Georgia, Texas, and California - having Champion Gilt at two and Champion Barrow at two! After that, I decided I wanted to give back to an organization that had given me so much. So I ran for the Junior Board and got on as an At-Large Director! In 2010 I exhibited my last hog, a duroc barrow from some of my best friends, Brett and Todd Beyers. In the midst of all of this, I had to make my college plans. With a tough decision, I decided to venture towards Lakeland Junior College. Jon Althaus was always someone that I looked up to and was always one of the first to commend me after a show. While at Lakeland, Jon taught me a lot and I loved every minute of it! We were high team at the National Barrow show that year and saw much success at other contests. That spring Mark Hoge told me I needed to come visit him soon at Western Illinois University - so that’s what I did in April. It didn’t take me long to figure out that Western Illinois University was THE place for me to be! My team and I had a successful year judging while also raising hogs for the truckloads at NBS and selling baby pigs at Duncan, Oklahoma! Bruce Egnell was the farm manager there when I had first started. Those of you that know Bruce know he’s a quiet guy, but when he and I got to talkin’ hogs, well it wasn’t a short conversation! Western Illinois really was a changing point in my life as I became great friends with Dr. Mark Hoge and his entire family. Mark taught me so much about livestock from management to evaluating and everything in between. After my collegiate judging career, Mark asked me to coach with him. I couldn’t tell you how exciting that is to be in the same shoes as a
332 THE SHOWTIMES JULY/AUGUST 2014
man of his caliber. Some would say I spent a long time there, but to me, my time was short lived at WIU. For sure a lot of memories. Judging in college and coaching were big life goals of mine; and, like every young man or woman, you want the opportunity, if given, to judge shows after you’re out of college. I’ve been blessed to say the least, and fortunate to meet many nationally recognized judges. People that I look up to that have pushed my name to judge shows. I remember asking Dan Hoge at the World Pork Expo what it would take to judge big shows. He looked straight at me, and said with a smirk, “Miles, you
"YOU CAN'T FIND A BETTER WORK ETHIC FOR A CHILD THAN THAT OF A LIVESTOCK ATMOSPHERE" don’t realize it yet, but you’ve got it.” To this day, I still remember that conversation and many more between he and I. I judged my first show in the summer of 2009. From there I just kept pushing towards my goal, begging for opportunities, and working hard to achieve them. I just turned 24 this year on the 19th of May. That day I sat down to count the letters I have gotten in the mail for opportunities to judge. I counted 136 shows and 14 different states since that summer of 2009 that I’ve had the opportunity to judge hogs or cattle in. I don’t say that to sound conceded. I say it to prove to those who have goals and think they are unattainable, that you just have to work for it! I finished up this last year at WIU and am
could tell, but I will leave you all with this. We all have a disability whether it be physical, mental, or habit. Both of my grandpas made it through a few years in school then went back home to work. Neither one really knew how to read or write. That was their disability, but they were hard workers that built great families with their own two hands. Barely anyone knows about this, but I’m legally blind in my left eye to the point where with or without glasses I still can’t see out of it. It has never stopped me from There are many more stories I dreaming or fulfilling those currently at home raising show pigs, working for my dad, and judging livestock shows across the country. I help my nephew Brenen Diesen, Lane Rinderer, and many others across the country as they try to be commended in the show ring. I look back and think of the people I’ve met so far that have influenced my life; and then I look forward to the youth today. In my opinion, you can’t find a better work ethic for a child or a better environment for people than that of a livestock atmosphere.
dreams. Throughout the years it hasn’t been easy for me to fund the show pigs or school; but with my parents and others behind me, the outcome has always been great! The struggle can be tough at times, but remember it could always be worse. To be successful, you have to have the mindset that you can be! Thank you to the Showtimes Magazine for asking me to share my story and more importantly thank you to my family and friends that have helped me make one! ▪

ZACK
LEAR ZACK FILLS IN THE BLANKS BY ZACK LEAR, IA
1. I would never... Become a vegetarian. That whole lifestyle makes no sense. 2. I wish I were better at... School. I have been blessed with many talents, but I got the short straw when it came to school. 3. My favorite aspect of my job is... Capturing moments to keep for a lifetime. 4. My favorite hobby is... Taking pictures. It's just a comfort for me and I love doing it. 5. I always make sure I... Have my camera everywhere I go. You never know when something may happen or when you need to capture a life moment. 6. My biggest fear is... Losing. I'm a competitor and of course I love winning, but losing absolutely scares me. 7. I never go to a show without... My dad. I've only ever shown at two shows without him and things just don't work well without him. While we may fight all the time, shows just don't seem right without him there! 8. My perfect day is... Living the dream of showing pigs. Waking up at a hotel in Des Moines, Iowa and having the opportunity to show 344 THE SHOWTIMES JULY/AUGUST 2014
at the World Pork Expo in my own state. 9. My favorite sports team is... Okie State Cowboys of course! 10. I would love to travel to... Australia. Not only to enjoy the awesome weather, but also to look at what they consider a "show pig." 11. If I could judge one show it'd be... Hands down the Junior Barrow Show at the World Pork Expo! 12. The easiest way to make me angry is... By touching my pigs. Weather they are in their pens or anywhere else. Don't do it. 13. If I wasn't taking photos, I'd be... Spending more time listening to judges on reasons so that I could improve apon my judging team skills. 14. My greatest accomplishment is... Reserve Overall Market Hog at the 2012 Ak-Sar-Ben show because it was my last 4H hog I would ever show, and he got the job done! 15. If I could meet one person it'd be... The big man above, God.

HAVE YOU BEEN TO CHURCH LATELY? IF GOD BE FOR US, WHO CAN BE AGAINST US? THERE’S ONLY ONE WHO CAN TRULY BE AGAINST YOU… AND THAT’S YOU. ONLY YOU CAN DECIDE TO STAY IN FEAR AND WORRY. BY BRAD HENDERSON, CO
I
don’t know about you but the summer has flown by faster than any summer I can think of. Between work, shows, rodeos and the bathroom remodel from the pit of you know where… (Should have just torn the old ranch house down and started from scratch!)... it’s almost over. Due to all the running, like most summers, we miss a lot of Sunday services held in our Save the Cowboy Church. Not only has it been a fast summer but I’ve been weighed down with a lot of things on my mind from work. Usually I can leave work in the truck when I get home but the past few months I’ve brought it home with me and haven’t been the husband or dad I should have been the past several months. All this was mulling around inside me when we finally walked through the doors of the Ag Building at the Elbert County Fair Grounds in Kiowa this past weekend and my Heavenly Father met me right there… just like He always does. Kevin Weatherby had us open our Bibles to Romans Chapter 8 and this is what it says… “What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? Who shall lay anything to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justified. Who is he that condemneth: It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. JULY/AUGUST 2014 THE SHOWTIMES 367
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, for thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” – Romans 8:31-38 And then God nailed me to the wall when Kevin said - If God be for us, who can be against us? There’s only one who can truly be against you… and that’s you. Only you can decide to stay in fear and worry. Only you can choose to not accept the freedom that Christ offers. Why? Why do you cling to the old life? Go all in, give it all, 100% to God.
I can’t tell you how I felt the weight just melt off of me. I had been thinking and trying to solve problems like an atheist and not turning it over to my Savior and Lord and seeking His Kingdom first and His righteousness. I had lost sight of the hope He had given me so long ago during the past few months and I was only focused on what I can see with my eyes and on my selfish old self. I have since been begging God’s forgiveness for grabbing the reigns of my life from Him. And as always, He has forgiven me but I pray I never try to take them from His faithful hands ever again. But He knows I will, and again, He will pull me up out of the stormy waters, wrap His arms around me and set me back in the boat and calm the waves that He’s walking across. I am so thankful to know Him. He continues to save my life.

How about you? Time to step back through those Church doors again? ▪
BIBLE VERSES “Therefore take no thought, saying, what shall we eat? Or, what shall we drink, or wherewithal shall we be clothed? For after all these things do the Gentiles seek: for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.” Mathew 6:31-34 “And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had made; and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made.” …Remember, on the seventh day God rested, not because He was tired, it was because He was finished! Finish the work He has given you! Genesis 2:2
