Ibis

The Ibis...

When we first moved down to Miami from Minnesota (about a year and a half ago now!), I saw the Ibis and did not know what it was. I thought it looked funny because of its long beak! I would ask around to neighbors and sometimes to random strangers , but no one could tell me what it was. Finally, one day, I went onto the friendly Wikipedia site and searched out different options of birds until coming upon the right one: the Ibis. So, now, I can look out the window and say to the boys: "Look at the Ibises!". No longer do I have to say "Look at the birds". It is a blessing to be educated!

"Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? ... So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." Matthew 6:26-34
