Gardening and Goats
by Elle E. Kay
The Rose of Sharon is in bloom. It is beyond beautiful. The blooms capture my attention every time I walk by on my way. Unfortunately, they attract the attention of our nine goats and three sheep too. As do most other attempts I’ve made to garden. I’ve tried hanging baskets, which they try their best to eat from. I’ve tried fenced area, which they’ve maneuvered their way into.

My weakness. His strength
by Elle E. Kay
It is a beautiful Sunday morning here in Shickshinny, Pennsylvania. I woke up earlier than usual this morning. I can hear the birds singing and the roosters crowing.
Another great day to be a servant of our Living God. Unless God changes my plans, I will be singing this morning during service. I’ve been in the choir for years, but I still get nervous every time I lift my voice up in praise in front of the congregation. It’s difficult for my fellow parishioners to see, but I’m actually quite shy.

Broken Eggs
by Elle E. Kay
At around 6:30 p.m., I changed my pants to put the goats away, so I wouldn’t get mud and manure all over the clothes I planned to wear to prayer meeting. Rushing back in, I changed back into the clothes I would be wearing out to prayer meeting. Quickly, I prepared my coffee and gathered my things. I would be leaving the house right on time. I might even get there a minute or two early. A good thing, since Pastor Dave likes to say ‘If you’re not early, you’re late.’

Today is a Beautiful Day
Today is a beautiful day. The sun is coming up through the woods behind my house. When I look out front, I can see that the daffodils are beginning to open. The grass is turning green again. I can hear the birds singing their lovely songs. I can choose to focus on all these wonderful things. I can choose to trust God and enjoy the gifts He’s provided.
