7:50pm. My day is coming to a close. It was a decent Monday…..our last Monday before summer break, since next Monday we are off for Memorial Day.
There is a park with a walking trail next to my school, and I usually walk one time around the trail during my lunch break. Sometimes I walk with co-workers and sometimes I walk alone; today I was alone. It is a time for me to renew my mind, pray, and think. There is a property next to the park and the owners have goats and peacocks. I have seen the goats before, but for some reason today they really stood out to me and I decided to take some pictures to share. I love the last picture…..notice how the black goat was reaching up to get something in a tree! In addition to enjoying the goats, I also heard birds singing and they sounded so beautiful. I am blessed to have the park right next to my school.
Job 12: 7 – 10 says, “But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds in the sky, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish in the sea inform you. Which of all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this? In his hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind.”
I am thankful that I was able to see God through nature today.
I am also thankful because Estes installed my new washing machine today and it seems to work fine (if you read my blog from yesterday, you will understand what I am referring to).
Oh! Another thing I am thankful for. Today at 10am, per our TEA (Texas Education Agency) Commissioner Mike Morath, our campus had a moment of silence in honor of the individuals who lost their lives at the school shooting in Santa Fe, Texas last Friday, March 18. I am so glad we did that. 🙂
