New Birds in Town


As far as I can tell, Swans are not mentioned in the Bible. Eagles, on the other hand, managed to poke their heads in there quite often. I'm not sure why. Swans are beautiful, graceful, calm, and they don't eat people's pets.  Eagles, on the other hand think nothing about swooping down and scarfing up any innocent creature in their line of vision  (I'm not bitter)! Why does the Eagle get all the glory? Sometimes that's the way it is. The loud, pushy, vain, self absorbed creatures crave the spotlight, while the quiet, humble, hardworking creatures are content to be behind the scenes.




We were recently honored with a visit from
 four of the beautiful, shy birds.


The Canadian geese, lined up in the 
background, were NOT happy to see them.


The geese made lots of noise!


The Swans decided they weren't welcome.


I'm not sure where they went, 
but I hope they come back, geese or not.





Darn geese, can't even get their "V" straight!

Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.

Jesus, Friend of Sinners by Casting Crowns

Jesus, friend of sinners, we have strayed so far away
We cut down people in your name but the sword was never ours to swing
Jesus, friend of sinners, the truth's become so hard to see
The world is on their way to You but they're tripping over me
Always looking around but never looking up I'm so double minded
A plank eyed saint with dirty hands and a heart divided

Oh Jesus, friend of sinners
Open our eyes to the world at the end of our pointing fingers
Let our hearts be led by mercy
Help us reach with open hearts and open doors
Oh Jesus, friend of sinners, break our hearts for what breaks yours http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9Kcm2OAWNA
