God’s
Puzzle!
Who doesn’t love a puzzle? I saw one today that God created. Well, it seemed like a puzzle. I took a drive through the refuge this
afternoon. I was hoping to see an
eagle. But I was amazed at the scene He
drew before me
I
was driving slowing past a small hill covered with frozen brown foliage, bare
trees and bushes, lots of fallen leaves.
I noticed a tiny wisp of white back in the bushes. I slowed to a complete stop and watched. When the wisp of white moved, I saw the deer,
an adult sized doe. As she took only one
step towards me, an amazing thing happened.
Almost immediately, I could see the other four. An ear jerked, a white tail twitched, another’s
leg moved. It was like they had appeared
from thin air. I carefully scanned the
rest of the area, thinking there could be more.
But that was it, the five. They
were not troubled by my van/presence.
They munched slowly and diligently among the leaves and occasionally one
or another would look my way.
I
watched a long time, undisturbed by any other vehicle. An amazing slow motion picture show before my
eyes on a cold January afternoon. As I gently
pulled away, the deer seemed not to notice.
I glanced at the dash, 4:35 pm and 27 degrees. Well then, I could go home. I’d found His blessing for January 24, 2014. Or rather it found me. Wow, who doesn’t love a puzzle?
