Book Cover & Preview Text
Have you ever been told, "You don't have the sense God gave a goose"? It's an old expression, and if someone is saying this about you, it probably means you've done something silly or even downright stupid. The beautiful Canadian geese have been such a thrilling part of my life for a long while now. I have taken these creatures straight into my heart, and they're under lock and key. Believe it or not, these geese have become a vital part of my spiritual walk. I can hear you wondering, "What in the world is she talking about? Geese are nothing more than messy, noisy, rude, and sassy birds. By the way did I say messy?" After you have read As the Geese Fly, I think you, too, might begin looking at my geese in a whole new light. So if you are ever told that you don't have the sense God gave a goose, then you can smile and nod. You will know the truth about our wonderful, awkward, out-of-proportion, highly intelligent friends.

About the Book
When I needed God to show up in my life and let me know that He was listening and knew what was going on in my frazzled mind and heart, He did. I can say that it was in the most unusual way. I saw a beautiful flock of geese fly over the freeway in front of my car. I had seen geese flying many times before in my life but never like this. It was at that moment that God “spoke up” and told me just what I needed to hear. We read in His Word of some very interesting and unique ways that He chose to speak to men and women. But does He still speak to His children today in this high-tech world of our push-button society? Yes, He does! Warning: after you read this book you will never look at a flock of geese in the same way again!
