Hole Up
If we hole up somewhere, we find a place to hide.
Sometimes people who break the law hole up. They try to hide where the police cannot find them.
Many animals hole up in trees for the winter. They gather nuts or other food before the cold, snowy days.
I always thought the old tree at top would be a great place for squirrels or an owl. I have never seen any in it. That does not mean they are not there.
However, Jenny Kuo found this squirrel holed up in a tree behind our house.
My home is my favorite place to hole up.
I prepare for cold, snowy days with:
- A warm house
- Favorite foods
- A comfortable chair
- Plenty of books
With all of those, I can enjoy hours of peace and quiet. I may be snowed under, but I am ready. I find comfort in my little garden spot of the world.
“Do you really think anyone can hide himself where I cannot see him?” the Lord asks. “Do you not know that I am everywhere?” the Lord asks” (Jeremiah 23:24 NET).
What about you?
