A sign

I wish I’d asked for a sign yesterday morning.  ”Lord, please give me a sign if I should run Umstead.”  ”Lord, please give me a sign if now’s the time to teach Asa to wipe himself.”  ”Lord, please give me a sign if I should buy that Patagonia puffy jacket.”

Because this is what I saw on the side of the highway as I headed to Enchanted Rock.

 

Has divine guidance written all over it, doesn’t it?  God speaks to me in chickens.

    So is God calling you a chicken? Nah….that is a rooster….God is calling you a rooster! Wakes up early….go-getter, wakes everyone else up early (even much larger animals)……fearless leader, walks around with his head up high…..confidence. You want to be called rooster! Good sign!

      That is a rooster! And they let me teach young people?? I wanted it to be a chicken. I’ve had a thing for chickens since the Muppet Show.

    Have you read The Bloggess?  If not, have Kat introduce you to the site.  Now I can’t look at metal chickens without laughing.

      I have Sara.  I should put that link up when I have time at the computer.  Thanks for reminding me.  :)  How’s Cali?

        Cali is good and beautiful but I have not seen any metal chickens here.

          This was my first metal chicken (rooster) in the wild.  I’d just seen those domesticated ones outside the HEBs until now. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you.
