A downy woodpecker like the one above visited the tree beside our balcony this morning as I was enjoying my private prayer time.
As I watched this cute little bird flutter around from branch to branch pecking at the bark, I found myself singing internally a praise song to the Lord.
My heart filled with joy to have a sighting of this cute bird.
At other times, my private prayer time is inside my home but where I can look out onto my balcony area.
Gazing on wildlife frequently brings me to praise and worship of my Lord as I also meditate upon His word to receive instructions for my day.
It is my habit to spend time in private prayer and reflection with my Lord.
- Why do I practice this habit of private prayer and reflection?
