Most of you can still buy beef cheaper than you could raise it.
That could very well be true. My farmer buddy down the road refuses to raise a few for his friends and church buddies. As for me, I used to raise chickens and even egg layers for about 12 yrs. I could not raise a meat bird for cheaper, however, they were far superior to the store bought ones. Now days I just buy a rotissery chicken. Sometimes they are only $5 , but they are barely 2 lbs. At least it's cooked and packaged. We could get our eggs as cheap as store bought , but barely cheaper. Our eggs too were far superior , however.
But the fruits of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness,faithfulness, Gentleness and self control. Against such things there is no law. Galations 5: 22&23
