EDITED FOR HUMILITY
Good Afternoon Wonderers:
It is so hard to sound humble when you are excited about the miracles God is doing in your life. My apology if I offend anyone by this blog, in particular. I have a story to tell and I am concerned most of offending God.
In desperation after my husband death, I had been collecting feathers that I found in the most peculiar of places. They would appear after I would come out of an emotional breakdown of sorts. Crying to my husband about where he was and if he was happy. Fussing with him and just out loud screaming why he left me behind.
The first came as a tiny white quill. I found it at the base of his chair right after I had vacuumed. I remembered reading something about angels leaving feathers behind so I looked it up on Google what a white feather would mean. A white feather could mean an angel is with you. It could also be the answer that my husband arrived and that he was happy.
The second feather was a little larger still with a white quill sitting on the bathroom counter. I took it to mean that I was being comforted and that I was on the right path to finding my soul’s purpose. It suddenly got serious to me so I put them into a container so I would not lose them. I literally assumed they were coming from my husband although he was not an angel. I forgot about that part. He is just an angel to me and I was missing him.
It was the third feather with an even larger quill and an even brighter white aura when I did I understand it to symbolized hope and faith and that there is a connection between both the physical and spiritual worlds.
Since that time, I have found a few more feathers and the biggest of all is a yellow feather. Ask-angels.com states it is, “A reminder to be cheerful and light-hearted, to be present, alert, and to stay focused on what you desire to magnetize these blessings into your life.”
God is so good to me. My mediation with Dr. Tony Evans pointed me to Luke 4:18. From the scroll of the prophet Isaiah Jesus read:
“The Spirit of the Lord is on me because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”
WOW GOD. You sent your only begotten son to erase the sins of the world. He died for us so we could be free and have everlasting life. Thank you for my salvation and entrusting me to spread the Good News. I am forever your humble servant.
This morning the writing prompt sent me to reflect on these quills. When I picked up the container I placed them in it says, “Don’t forget the power of prayer! HAVE FAITH!
Have Faith of a mustard seed Wonderers and enjoy this beautiful day!

I am sorry about the loss of your husband and I don’t mean to sound cynical, but you probably have a worn out pillow.
Nothing cynical about it. We don’t own down pillows. 🤔
I love your thoughts 🙂
I was thoroughly blessed by this post! How like God to manifest Himself in little symbolic things that are HUGE to us!! I’m only a little envious–(not enough to be a sin 🙂 ) because He does things for me all the time too. Like yesterday, when I remembered I should ask/pray about something I needed–and as I did, I had total confident faith (which isn’t always the case…). Less than 10 minutes later I discovered God had gone ahead, already making provision for me–probably as I was praying! I was SO thrilled and thankful to Him!! God bless your week ❤
Thank you again. You are a HUGE inspiration to me. I began to worry how I was sounding when I started this post, only to edit it to humble myself. Fear of sounding like I was boasting. People like you remind me that God gave me a job to do and my grandmother always said, “If God be for you who could be against you.” God Bless You.
Oh my dear, I want to hug you till I squeeze the stuffings out of you (an old saying I heard, growing up)! Somewhere, Paul speaks about boasting not of himself, but in/of God”–and that’s what we do when our heart are brimming over with Him. When we shout-out about what He’s done, it’s the same as Jesus and the Holy Spirit–who never glorified themselves, but only the Father God. So, please–let’s not worry about silly stuff that the enemy would love to twist in his constant efforts to subvert God’s plans, and keep us down. Remember that verse about how “the rocks and stones will cry out”, if we keep silent? I sure don’t want mere stones stealing my thunder for the Lord 🙂
I found a couple scriptures, but not the one about Paul…
Psalm 34:2
My soul will make its boast in the LORD; The humble will hear it and rejoice.
Jeremiah 9:24
but let him who boasts boast of this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am the LORD who exercises lovingkindness, justice and righteousness on earth; for I delight in these things,” declares the LORD.
May He bless you so abundantly, Sister–we rock because we belong to The Rock!!
