This morning we saw a hawk in our garden. My daughter knew what it was. W e were so thankful that our small dogs were not outside. I am not sure where the hawk came from or why he would come and visit me.
As i think about this hawk, I think God is like a hawk watching over us from a distance. I know as it gets closer to Christmas I am reminded how many people are alone at this time of year. The joys of Christmas just have gone. I see and hear so many hurting people and my heart aches. But how many of us take a moment to care. It is so easy to turn our faces and look in the other direction. I think God often watches from a distance to see what we will do. The hawk visiting me today was like God coming and saying I am still watching you.
So my challenge today is what will you do from a distance, will you show compassion or simply fly away to your safe home.
Please have a cup of tea with me today.
