Feathers for the Nest

(Thoughts He keeps bringing to mind daily, changing me…)

An excerpt from my column this month at Christian Women Online:

“…When will I learn that down sacrificed settles and soothes? For scraps won’t suffice. Snippets of time, leftover me, a trinket, a diversion, tossed.

Mother ducks don’t line nests with feathers, dirty and trampled, the molted and unnecessary. Why would I?
Nests need feathers fresh, warm with mother’s life….”
(I hope you’ll take a moment to pop over)

Art: The original Koester painting, “Moulting Ducks,” is part of the collection at the Frye Art Museum in Seattle www.fryemuseum.org
