Feather in my path
Haiku
Doth the hawk fly by thy wisdom, and stretch her wings toward the south?
Job 39:26 KJV
The hawk, a noble bird of great strength and sagacity, and yet a bird of prey, v. 26. This bird is here taken notice of for her flight, which is swift and strong, and especially for the course she steers towards the south, whither she follows the sun in winter, out of the colder countries in the north, especially when she is to cast her plumes and renew them. This is her wisdom, and it was God that gave her this wisdom, not man.
Matthew Henry commentary on Job 39:26 KJV
I happened to find a beautiful hawk feather in my path as I was walking last evening. It is said to be a sign of wisdom.

Many kinds; numerous and varied:
Are God’s Grace and Wisdom shown
To beings in the heavenlies
And to those in the world

As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, Ephesians 3:10
(The photo is of one of my Tambourines that I use in praise and worship. I name all my Tambourines as I feel each instrument has a different purpose. This Tamborine I named “Manifold” because it reflects light in so many ways. I use it in worship to praise God for His Manifold Grace And Wisdom according to the scriptures 1 Peter 4:10 and Ephesians 3:10 )
I once was you before you were me.
If I’d known then, what I know now,
I would have told you this:
Remember your creator
in the days of youth,
And listen to
Your parents
Stories,
For
Times
Will come
When you will
Wish you had done
All of that and more.
I would have told you
To plan well for your future
Since someday you would grow old,
Wish you had, but it would be too late.

For those who are willing to seek
Treasure can daily be found
The Scriptures are an oyster
Holding pearls of wisdom
Pick up your bible
And open the pages
Within them
You’ll find
Pearls

A couple of days ago I was blessed to find a most unique dining room table at a local thrift store.
I was in need of a new dining table and had been searching for a long time for a small dark wood table.
I was about to give up hope as every table was either the wrong size or color, therefore I decided I would just buy a table cloth for my old light colored one and look for some dark colored chairs instead.
So on a recent visit to another thrift store I found some dark colored wood chairs that I figured would be ok. They weren’t the best but they were very low priced and sturdy. I figured I could clean them up a bit and they would do me just fine with the new tablecloth.
However, while walking toward the cashier to purchase them I happened to pass by a very unique small round dark colored wood table that I hadn’t previously seen. It had an inlaid wood top with an eight point star in the middle and scallops around the edges. The legs were decorative metal in a scroll type pattern. It was such a beautiful table! Just the right size and color and perfect for me! It was priced very low too! I had found my table at last, and even better it had meaning for me, because the eight point star has many meanings in history and culture, some I found were: Redemption, Regeneration, Baptism, Life, Hope, New Beginnings, Guidance and Wisdom.
It has also been called “The Star of Melchizedek” and is the traditional pattern for winter clothing in Norway and my dad was Norwegian.
I feel this table is a blessing and though it needs a bit of refinishing , it is definitely a rare find and treasure to me!
