The Hummingbird Came Back For A Special Visit Today. The Day Of My Great Niece's First Holy Communion. Yes, God Can Speak Through His Creation If You Have The Eyes & Ears To Tune In And Receive It.

When I opened up the blinds early this morning, I saw the 1st sighting of the season of a hummingbird fluttering around. I then refreshed the homemade nectar in both feeders for them. I know when they first arrive, they can need extra nourishment. So, I ordered a surprise for them today. A plug-in electrical operating hummingbird bath/fountain for them to enjoy on the back deck. I have been searching for this for many weeks now and reading reviews and today was the day to select one just for them and the birds also in the yard to enjoy. How fun is that. 

I washed my car today. Planted a few more flowers and watched a few JLR Investigates programs in regard to the pastor's wife that died. There was an incredibly moving march in which people gathered to chant they wanted justice for Mica (Miller) now. I then watched a most tender memorial gathering @ the beach with this young woman's family and friends. I had tears in my eyes and began to cry for those in her family left behind to have to deal with this tragic death. They released flowers into the ocean @ Myrtle Beach, SC and as I am writing this now, it reminds me of the time I was in the Bahama's with my husband, and I purchased a bouquet and went to the water's edge to release them into the water because that was the closest, I would probably be to honor his body never being recovered in the ocean. When you go through tragedy you then tend to have a tender heart for those going through tragedy. I wonder why that is. I suppose some others may choose to have a cold heart and not deal with it and suppressing it may make them able to cope.

I started reading a new book that was released recently. It is very good, and I enjoy the prayers we are asked to pray while reading the book. Guess what? Why oh why do I have to be the one reading a book and stumble upon a possible typo error. Aren't there highly paid editors or proofreaders that get paid to do this job? So, I am reading along and then see "ges" but when you put the complete sentence thought together, I do believe it was meant to be "ages." So, with so many people writing endorsements for this book then why didn't any of them catch this if in fact they read the book all the way through before writing an endorsement for the book. Why don't people who are supposed to care for the author tell the author of this typo before it goes to print and is released to the general public to purchase. Then, I do believe when the book was purchased as a pre-sale though the ministry, I think they said something about getting some video clips to go along with it only if you ordered through the ministry. What is going on? Maybe I heard the author or someone else incorrectly and there really are no video clips to go along with sections of the book. I sure hope this is not double minded talk going on. Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy.

Why couldn't the typo have been at the end of the book somewhere because now that I stumbled on this typo, I am most cautious to read in the event another typo is right around the corner somewhere. Ministers, if you are an author, please really proofread your final drafts before going to print. Better yet maybe stop getting other people's endorsements for your book unless they can promise you, they will read through the entire book before writing up an endorsement.

I am so thankful I am not a book author because if I were I would hold people working on my book accountable so as to not make me look foolish with a book that has typo errors or sentences with word thoughts left out. There is no need to get endorsements of a book because all you need is Holy Spirit endorsement. He leads those to purchase the book He helped you create, the very ones that need to read what you wrote about. To bring glory to God and not man so to speak.

Lesson learned, lean more on Holy Spirit and less on man. No book launch can be too big or small enough if the book has not been proofed correctly. There I go speaking out loud again. Oh, in case you are curious, the page of this book where the potential typo error is page 35; 2nd paragraph; 3rd sentence. I will continue to read on because the content so far is really good. This particular book had 9 people write an endorsement and then a forward was written by another. So, 10 sets of eyes possibly read the book, draft, etc. and none of them caught this?

Here are the flowers I released that day in the Bahama's.
