Sometimes there are things which happen, which we label as coincidences, but are really God's way of tying seemingly unconnected events together in a way only He could. When I blogged last time, I threw in the Miller Moth theme at the last minute without any idea of why or what I was going to write. Today, I began to realize that the migration of the Miller's from the east into Colorado may parallel what Karen and I are doing, and plan to do, each spring as we take care of our health and property needs and necessities yet still remain obedient to our Ministry of Miles ministry and the volunteer opportunities which have cropped up as we have travelled the past year-and-a-half.
The Miller Moth phenomenon is interesting and spawns a host of phenomena such as caterpillars in the fields destroying crops, swallows flying around street intersections, moths in refrigerators and other sealed areas, bowls of soapy water under light bulbs and gooey orange/yellow stuff all over windows and house siding. Coloradoan's are not particularly fond of the Miller Moth invasion each year. Hopefully, our migration back to Colorado has not been as much of a nuisance as that of the moths. We have been welcomed warmly by friends and family and so far no one has hit us with a fly swatter or thrown a bowl of soapy water at us, even though our motor home and car could use a good bath from all the mud and dirt on the roads caused by the abundant rain this month.
Our Colorado/Wyoming adventure continues. The medical will resume on Tuesday, the memories will resume in a few hours and maybe the expected warmer and dryer weather called for this week will send the moths to their next destination in the Colorado mountains. We can only marvel at God's creation and the various roles we play in it as messengers and ministers. Sure a lot of words starting with "m" in this post. Merry month of May, maybe?
And on a serious note, thank you to all our military, veterans and military families this Memorial Day. Thank you all for your sacrifice and service.
