The Owls and the Jackals Got It...

This blog is about me getting my ducks in a row, growing into the woman I know I can be and tracking my journey as it comes. Or as it doesn't come and I whine impatiently for it (because I am well aware those days are coming). I'm trying to do new things, go new places, become a new woman so I can be the best mommy in my abilities. One thing I've done to set up a structure for facilitating this is joining Bible Study Fellowship (here's the link to BSF, it's actually very refreshing). It's a no-nonsense, no hostility, no denomination Bible study. No delving into the depths of my heart, etc etc etc.

But on my first week (this week) as I'm doing my Bible study, what verse should I be studying but this?

Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past
See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland.
The wild animals honor me, the jackals and the owls
because I provide water in the desert
and streams in the wasteland,
to give drink to my people, my chosen,
the people I formed for myself
that they may proclaim my praise.
(Isaiah 43:18-21)

What's a girl to do but perceive?
