As I watch the horses graze this morning and see a flock of birds flying overhead to a destination unbeknownst to me I sense the presence of calm. I look at the movement to the right across the field and I see a small deer enjoying its morning nourishment. It is truly a serenity moment and I am blessed.
These are the times I sense God’s presence and know within the deep recesses of my heart that God provided this scenery to encourage me; at this moment. The deer moves slowly as it grazes and raises its head now and then observing its surroundings. The horses look up and turn their heads toward its movement and then continue to graze. The message? All is well. I cannot help but tear up and thank the Lord for this time with me. I’m glad he took these few simple moments to inspire and refill my heart with his love. This was an assurance moment directly from God, “Give all your worries and cares to me, for I care about you.” 1 Peter 5:7
