Last Summer we moved from Iowa because of cold weather.

Now I recognized that all the things were under the plan of our Heavenly Father.

Almost thirty years ago we received Drive License and Green Card in Jacksonville FL.

I think this is not a meaningless event.  

 

For the people who wish to live in the will of God, there is no meaningless time.

All the time and all the matters are great for our lives.

Before moving day we couldn't find proper house for us.

A couple of houses were gone with other family.

We were very tired and disappointed about that fact.

 

But the day we need to move out was on our hand.

We decided to leave our house with twenty five year's memory.

Just like Abraham without knowing about our plan of future.

Oh, God!  Whenever I remember that moment I couldn't stop tearing.

 

We found one house remained empty with the plan of our Heavenly Father.

For our weak and fragile old body God was planning all the things we couldn't imagine about.

One and half years I had prayed for our new home with some conditions.

God fulfilled all my prayer for our new home.

 

I needed one more room for my art work, and another one for prayer.

God's plan is always perfect , I believe. Amen.

We planted one Clementine tree and one Hibiscus last December.

Already they have one yellow fruit and a couple of baby fruits.

 

We have missed Cardinals made nest in our old Iowa house garden.

We have wished to see the beautiful red male, and hear their song.

But how could it happen in Florida?

One day I found one beautiful Cardinal male in our back yard on the Oak tree.

And female Cardinal  fallowed and showed up with her husband.

 

Any where in Florida any road, any house we didn't see Cardinal ever.

First time they didn't showed up every day.

These days  lovely Cardinal couple visit our home a couple of times everyday.

They may moved from Iowa? We only imagine happily. smile.

 

On the bird food stand there are two bird feeders.

Today I found that female Cardinal share food with very small birds.

We prepared one more bird feeder because of beautiful male Cardinal eating alone.

 

I love all kinds of bird.

I love Cardinal beautiful male.

I love Cardinal female because of her warm heart.

I wish all the people could share their  joy and sorrow.

 

I will thank to God 

preparing empty house on time

and

preparing another room for my artwork

and

sending Cardinal to my garden

all the time for my life.

 

 

God bless you all !
