They're Gone!

Our beautiful, little baby wrens have gone.

They grew strong enough and gained enough courage to attain higher ground.

We miss them, but will keep the nest warm until next year hoping the Mama and Dada will return to again make their home at the Ponderosa.

I remain steadfast with my little chicks, knowing I have a few more years...learning how to slowly remove my wings around them as they gain their own feathers.

Praying for their courage, too, to one day make a difference in this world.

The Courage to Go On

Many tears

Confused thoughts

Strength in the Word of God

Other childrens' gifts of love

Straining to focus on my other precious cargo

Sea billows of guilt

Fear of the future

Carefree thoughts that need to be reigned in

A thick fog that needs to dissipate



Thank you, Jesus, you know all these thoughts before I say them. Please give me the strength to say, "It is well with my soul". You are the maker of all new things.
