Savoring

I’m so thankful for those special moments

when my Abba Father blesses me

with gifts to savor during crazy times.

Tuesday afternoon,

while I was holding a clipboard

and checking off packing numbers

as the movers called them out,

a beautiful bird landed next to the pond.

It stood there looking elegant and regal.

Then it flew off to find quieter hunting grounds.

I’m hoping that it is one of my new neighbors.

When I learn about the local birds,

I will know when I see a Great White Egret or a White Heron.

For now, I’m just savoring the gift.
