Faith looks not at what happens to him but at Him Whom he believes.

I think we all wish we could be as calm, cool, and collected…as well as stunning
as this Lady Amherst Pheasant…
Well, we can!
Do not conform to the pattern of this world,
but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good,
pleasing and perfect will.
Romans 12:2 NIV
And with a tail like that…

“…his good, pleasing, and perfect will.” That in-of-itself is the refreshing reminder we all need to hear. ❤️ Hugs to you for sharing it!
And thank you for your daily prayers leading up to today— !!!!

That pheasant is awesome. Thanx for sharing the pics.
I’ve never seen a bird like it—and I don’t know how I could manage such a long tail and keep it looking so nice 🙂
[…] Calm, cool, and collected… […]
thank you GW

So colorful! Was this at a zoo??
It’s called Parrot Mt and Gardens in pigeon Forge- a Christian 4 acre bird sanctuary in a mountain—many are in large aviary cages but many are free on their perches and trees — we got to allow many of them on our hands, arms to feed them— they did make the mayor very nervous as the larger parrots were very vocal and raucous — like dinosaurs echoing through the trees— looks up their web site as they have great pictures of each of their beautiful birds.
