Lockdown Day 492 - 31 July 2021
The great weather continues and we decide to travel down the Sunshine Coast to revisit Jbay to have coffee and a walkabout in the surfer quarter of the village.
As before, Infood did not disappoint. We sat outside in the warm sun with a band of yellow finches chattering away while feverishly building nests in the palm tree for the females to decide which nest is best. I was mesmerised by them, going about their daily grind, some of them building two nests simultaneously to try and meet their female's criteria.
They just keep building untill one of the nests is acceptable to the female. No mess, no fuss. Or maybe that's what the chatter is about, maybe they're saying, "I can't believe she is just not satisfied with this nest, now I have to build another one", or, "who does she think she is, taking my hard work apart just like that" 😂.
We left Jbay for St Frances where we had lunch at Chokka Block in the little harbour. With the fishermen on strike, all the boats were moored and the picture looked like a little fishing village you would find somewhere in the Mediterranean.
The Local Calamari was served with either crispy veg or chips and was tasty and cooked to perfection.
Still thinking about those finches, as I tidy the kitchen before going to bed, I praise God for each and every skill He embedded into our design, particularly our resilience in faith. The good news of my nearest starting to make progress in their recovery, highlights the fact that we are here to exhibit the greatness of the goodness of God and His incredible power. And confirming that He's got this.
