This morning my mom and I got outside while the sun was warm and the air was cool. I got her all set up on the porch with a book and her water bottle while I worked in the garden area. The HOA has been working on fire mitigation and removed our 3 bushes that were deemed hazardous. That left a pretty big blank spot. So, I raked the mulch and evened it all out. Then I sprinkled some flower seeds and watered them in. We’ll see what comes up. While we were outside, several neighbors came by for various reasons. I chatted with each one and got the news on the recent happenings. Our next door neighbor came and visited with mom too. She told us about a book that a friend gave her called “Left to Tell: Discovering God Amidst the Rwandan Holocaust”. It was written by Immaculée Ilibagiza who is an author and motivational speaker. I had listened to some of her meditations during Lent. Our neighbor said that her friend’s church was working on getting Immaculee to do a presentation. I asked her to keep me informed as I would also like to go. Mom and I had a blessed morning outside enjoying the air, the earth, and the people.

I Found God today enjoying being outside and visiting with neighbors.
