--Let's travel back in time to 1915.

-Endless cotton crops had sucked the nutrients out of Southern soil. Post-Civil War farmers faced scorched land and scrawny crops. George Washington Carver, a professor at 'Alabama's Tuskegee Institute', offered a solution. Change crops and restore nitrogen and fertility to the soil. Grow sweet potatoes, cowpeas, soybeans, and most of all, peanuts. But Carver couldn't convince the farmers.

--It took a boll weevil to do that.

Our of Mexico they swarmed, through Texas, into Louisiana and Mississippi. By 1915 the cotton-consuming bug had reached Alabama. Carver saw the plague as an opportunity. "Burn off your infested cotton," he pleaded, "and plant peanuts."

But who would buy them?

An elderly widow knocked on Carver's door. After planting and harvesting peanuts, she had hundreds of pounds left over. She was not alone. Carver discovered barns and storehouses piled high with peanuts. They were rotting in the fields for lack of a market...

Working day and night, Carver tore apart the peanut and unlocked the chemical magic, that would turn loss into profit. In less than five years, peanut production turned his Alabama county into one of the wealthiest sections of the state. During his lifetime, Carver extracted more than three hundred products from the peanut.

-Ask God to help you "find your peanut"--the tailor-made task that honors God, helps others, and thrills you. 'With God all things are possible.' (Mark 10:27)~~
