I am sitting in my back porch , here in East Texas ! I so enjoyed your story ! The Lord has reared w his creation of watching deer , foxes along w all kinds of birds . What often amazes me is that we happen to look out the window at the exact time for a look of God’s creation ! That is definitely a GOD thing! Always enjoy your ponderings Philip !

Wow! Bears and mountain lions right outside your back door…good for practicing those verses on “Fear not…” -for real!
Thank you, Philip, for all you share!

Thank you for the descriptive reminder of our years down the mountain. (Our pastor, Ted Travis, told us that you had visited Jubilee Community Church a couple of years before we moved to downtown Denver.)
My wife and I just finished our favorite missionary bio ever, VISION FOR GOD. What a privilege was your’s to know both of the Brand docs! I also recently benefitted from your PRAYER. The mention of “ghost money” in Taiwan revived an early memory of our 18 years on the island. An invitation to a student’s home for dinner, with the $ burning out front, was a first “meat offered to idols” challenge. Where and when were you there?
Congratulations on the Wheaton alumni assn. award. Just saw it in the program (a grandson just graduated).

Such beautifully descriptive narrative Philip.
In the UK our animals are not so exotic! However I get such joy just from watching birds in my garden and especially splashing around in the birdbath.
One benefit of COVID and being isolated was the time just to observe nature all B around us – we are continually blessed,
Thank you for reminding us…..

Living in the Pacific NW, between the coast and the mountains, the catechism question “what is the chief end of man?” and the answer “to glorify God and enjoy him forever” rings true. Every morning I see (just now, springtime) ducklings, fawns, tiny lizards, baby snakes, eaglets…frogs croaking their wishes…on and on. It is the time of year of renewal of so many things, and it is a wonder and a delight to watch. Walking in nature gives peace so needed just now in this broken world. Thank you for noticing the wonders of Colorado!

Thank you for sharing your view outside of your window, especially your comments regarding your engagement with fox’s. We have been blessed with five fox kits that can be seen sunning and playing from the boardwalk between Asbury Park and Ocean Grove. They are such celebrities they were featured in the local newspapers.

Appreciate your thoughts regarding God’s great creation.
