Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within in me. Psalm 51:10
Has spring already arrived I found myself thinking as I stepped out the door into a balmy sort of morning and as I stood on the edge of the garden, with just me and God I heard the call of a baby bird anxious for its breakfast being watched by its mother, one eye on the baby and one eye on the food gathering. I marvelled at the increasing swell of the buds on the Japonica bush, some already bursting with delight and the air is filled with the perfume of the wattle blossoms. From the bird bath came sounds of the joy of little finches bathing, splashing water all over while under the bird feeder were the sparrows, chubby balls of grey feathers always so happy, gathering crumbs and they, a pest to some, always bring me delight for they remind me of God's promise that he cares for us all, even the sparrows.
A few still moments at the front door with God sets the pace of the day.
Grace and peace from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Anne, servant of the Lord
