We are welcomed to the neighborhood

Just before we decided to purchase our current home Walter and I were doing a walk through when we came across a bird's nest perched in a column on the front porch. We didn't think much of it until one Saturday morning we came to spruce up the yard before moving day. As we were clearing out the flower bed we noticed a little bird coming to and from this quiet little nest. It then dawned on me that the little bird was preparing for her little babies and we were disturbing her. About a week later we moved in and as I was standing on the porch watching the movers I heard the faint sounds of those little baby birds. Something was very special about it... it's not something I can explain. It sort of felt like it was our sign from the Lord that everything was going to be okay. I felt a sense of peace. Call me crazy or whatever but I believe that God gives us signs all the time that are apparent to him but often unnoticeable to us. So it just goes to show that sometimes you just have to sit, wait and meditate on the Lord. Because you never know when he will reveal himself...even if it's just in a little bird's nest.

1 Samuel 12:16"Now then, stand still and see this great thing the LORD is about to do before your eyes!
