welll yesterday afternoon the breeze grew into that wind I dislike so much , it even rained and a weak tree branch fell ,so that by the time I had eatten dinner my head and face , mouth was not happy. I couldnt sleep but tryed well around 2 am I pulled my head out from underneath the pillow and what did I hear.... a whip or whil chattering to the shadows and moon light. well when ever I hear a whip-o-whil to me it is God sending a verbal signal a melody of comfort that even though things have me feeling yulk God is right beside me singing in my ear softly. so I saw/heard... God in the dark last night.
I also felt God strolling and dancing on some of the threads here at neuro over the last few days maybe some of you have also
Peace

Sorry about your lack of sleep, BMW. But, guess you wouldn't have God's voice through the night otherwise. Whipperwill's have such a beautiful sounding voice.

Last night as the sun was setting and dark clouds were rolling in...

The sun shown over the top with rays pointing in all directions...

What a great reminder that God is with us even as darkness falls upon us.

Well, BMW~ I think I do feel that "someone" smiling down on me. Since it's Mother's Day, I feel my Mom more than ever today and I know the Lord is taking good care of her. Thank you for that last post.

I needed it today.

I hope you feel the smiles today too!

I can't say that I've seen GOD recently... probably have but didn't realize it.

I know that I truly experienced GOD's presence and love yesterday.

I spent a lovely day with a wonderful man who is a true friend. (YES, FRIEND ONLY.)

We talked, we laughed, and we cried together. I feel so blessed to have him in my life. I have learned so much from my friend and I pray that he's in my life for a very long time!!!!

I was away for a few days and was blessed to see God several times and in different places. I am truly grateful!

We made a trip up into the North GA mountains to visit family and stayed in Toccoa, GA. There is a Christian school there that is located in such a beauriful area. Back in the 1970's, the dam broke and around 30 or so people were killed. It was a terrible ordeal and I can remember listening to the news that morning while they were trying to figure out how many student, etc were missing. The dam broke in the wee hours before daybreak so there was no way to evacuate the dorms, etc.

ANyway, with God's blessing and love, they still have a most incredible corner of the world there. We were fortunate enough that the flowers were blooming, mountain laurel, rhodadendrums, ets. Its was amazing. The waterfall was beautiful and so very peaceful! I have never been able to understand how its possible for anyone NOT to believe in God when they see things in nature.

Then, on our way home, I stopped in Athens, GA to put flowers on my Mothers grave for Mothers Day. When we finished placing the flowers, we were just visiting and enjoying the breeze before getting back in the car for another 3 hours.

There was a bird that I could not recognize about 50 ft from us and she was carrying on like she was trying to tell us something. I mentioned to my family that it sure seemed like she was trying so hard to tell us something important to her. She would not give up. We were not going anywhere near where she was as we were done with placing out flowers, etc. Finally, I started walking slowly over toward her. The trees were surrounding the cemetary so there was no tree right around for her to guard. So as I got a little closer she jumped over a couple of feet and started acting like she could not fly. So I thought maybe she was hurt. I went a little closer, she went a little "sicker" and moving farther away from me. Mind you I was not getting close to her. I just wanted to see if her wing was hurt. I knew she would die out there because she could not get to any cover. Well, she kept talking and throwing her pitiful looking wing up and out and scooting all around on the ground. My family said she is hurt. She has to be. I told them to give me minute to look around. Sure enough, (I promise I was very careful and did not get too close) there on the ground under some silk flowers were three pretty speckled eggs! I was right. She was trying to "tell" us something! I told my hubby she is not hurt. She is trying to divert our attention away from her eggs. If she pretends she is hurt, normally whatever is there would go after her and she would keep her eggs safe. It was amazing to watch her. She was very determined and was not going to give up on tricking us away from those eggs! I had seen it on nature shows but had never seen it that up close and personal. We were all so intrigued and blessed to see the Mother on Mothers Day doing what God assigned her to do!

This was a special moment for us. We know God is watching out for us with everything we do. I am so thankful that we were able to see that exhibit of a Mothers love. I pick up on more things in nature than my husband does. I don't know if it just has to do with looking for it more when I am out or what. I am always checking things out like that cause there is so much to miss in nature.

Thank you for taking time to read this. I hope you are able to focus on the little things too. That is where some of the most remarkable things happen for me.

I just feel God's presence so much lately. As I sit by my patio door looking out every morning, sipping coffee, I realize what an amazing world we live in. I finally saw my first hummingbird tasting the nectars of my Fuscia plant that I put up just for her and her friends.

God created those elegant wee creatures for a reason and I'm amazed as I watch them flit around. Maybe I just needed to be reminded of the GOOD all around us.

well I have been looking and searching for works of God and or Gods work for a good while now but today I definatly saw the beauty and awesomeness of God . I was keeping company with the sky as the clouds and storm built and was near coming when the sun burnt threw the dark gray for five or so minutes and a double rainbow shone brilliant and bold within the clouds and approching dark storm short and quick like a big fast smile from a passing friend.
and it made me smile back up into the sky. I hope some of you see works of God all around you too. and if/when you do share it here. Thanks
PEACE to ALL in this room.
