Birds!

Wow it has been a long week. For the most part it was a great weekend. Today I went to a soccer game to watch Allie play and it was as always f-u-n FUN! Then I thought about going to a movie but I ended up going on a walk. I went to Jacobs Dream and that was all great until this family with 6 kids showed up to take pictures and I was in almost every picture they were taking so I left. 

Then I went over by the pond and just laid there and relaxed and just existed. It was awesome. The cool thing was I was laying there with my ipod in and just listening and watching. To my right there were birds looking up. I am not sure at what but they were just looking up. I started to think that is what I need to do right now. I just need to look towards God. Then another bird flew over and started to get a drink. Then he just got in the water and it was like he couldn't get enough of it. Then I thought this is how I should feel about God. I should feel like I can't get enough of him and constantly want more of him. Then more birds flew over and joined in all the fun. All of this is going on and cars are just passing by. It just reminded me of everyday life. The stuff will always be there and as long as you are focused on God the stuff seems like less of an issue. I love that. Here is a picture of my bird friends! Enjoy and remember to turn your eyes
 towards God.
It is hard to tell but all the little black dots are birds. Some are in the water and some are on the shore.

oh yes, this is so good! You need more time like this - squeeze it in whenever you can. So do I! Wasn't that better than a movie?
