Taking a Pause

I am listening to the birds twittering in the trees. Funny that I did not even notice the baby birds calling for their mothers outside my open window until this very moment. They are probably hungry.

Here it is late morning and this is the first time I have taken a pause to actually savor the serenity in my home. I thought Church was the only place I could find stillness and spend time alone with the Lord.

I am also observing my pets. They are quietly enjoying just being here in their safe and familiar surroundings. We could learn a lot from animals.

I hope I never take for granted the sanctuary that is my home.
