I can’t compete with your intricate observations of nature, but I did want to share the squirrel saga that we have watched for several evenings as we ate dinner outside. We seem to have a favored clump of hazelnuts about 20 feet from our deck. We have watched a squirrel climb onto branches so spindly that I didn’t think the branch would hold even his small weight. He would hang upside down to reach a tasty morsel and then would eat it in that position. Yesterday in the middle of the afternoon perhaps the same squirrel was hunting around the roots of a nearby tree. He dug briefly, but didn’t seem to find anything edible. Then he rubbed his head and rolled in the dirt that he had loosened. I wondered if he was cooling off with the damp earth of the garden that we water everyday now because of the heat. It will be over 100 degrees here for several more days. Nebraska temperatures have been cooler than Portland’s this week. God must be laughing at the ex-Nebraskans that thought they could escape summer heat by moving to the Northwest. However, we persevere (and use the air conditioning). I look forward to reading your next observations of changes that occurred at Sanctuary during your absence.
Much love,
Mira

Yet in the mind of God, in His love for you, you always existed, for He had an idea in His mind that was you from all eternity. There was never a time when God was not thinking of you….”
‘Alone With The Alone’ by Jesuit priest, George Maloney

I think you will tour the world. Your immense ability to love combined with God’s wisdom — will make our universe a better place. God’s speed today!
xo,
janie & Curt
