The Pastor's Porch
Reflections from Pastor Mary (July 2, 2020)Have you ever watched a hummingbird? I have been fascinated with these creatures since I was a little girl. How fast their wings flutter! Once I was watching one of them, and I thought to myself how I had never seen a hummingbird being still. I could relate. So much to do, so little time as the saying goes. While I was watching, to my great surprise and delight, this particular tiny bird landed on a branch near me and began to groom itself! It then sat for a while before taking off again. I felt God's whisper that I too needed to take time to rest and to be with Him. Maybe this day you can take a few moments to look out the window and see something in a new way. And perhaps you too will experience God's whisper to you. Lord, please help me to spend a few moments at rest today, listening for Your voice and seeing the beauty of Your creation. Thank You that You love me so dearly. Amen.
Song of Solomon 2:11-12
11 For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone;
12 The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;
