As I walked my daughter to her bus stop this morning, my mind and heart heavy with wonder, I happened to look up at the emerging sun. The pale blue sky was painted with beautiful streaks of red, with the crescent moon resting above.  My eyes rested there, but then caught a glimpse of a bird’s nest.  As I slowly looked around at the neighboring trees, I noticed more of them, high among the thinnest branches of the oaks. I smiled at the skies and winked, laughing at the simple and   beautiful power of God answering the questions in my soul.

The day before, I’d experienced a financial crash. My resources were depleted. All I could muster within me were the words “Everything’s going to be alright,” despite feeling the opposite. I blasted Kirk Franklin’s “More than I Can Bear” and went about my day. Later that afternoon, my Master’s diploma was delivered to my home. Though worry lingered in the back of my mind, I was encouraged to hold on, and walked a little taller into my evening.
