On the way to Harpswell, Maine one of my favorite places to vacation, I stopped in Newbury Port, Massachusetts. I love to stop at the People’s Church which has a beautiful Gabriel weathervane. I look for the archangel Gabriel weathervane when I can. I also have one in my backyard, where I sit and ponder. The archangel Gabriel means G-d is my strength in some religions. It is also my youngest son’s name, and my beloved Glenn’s Hebrew name.
Here he/she is giving me strength, and pause to wonder.
Today was the first snowfall of the season. It was lovely. My Archangel Gabriel blows his horn, bringing in the season. Better things are coming. There is hope.
Over the weekend, I went to visit my son and his wife and my little grandson. What delight! What a precious family!
Along the way, I saw a weathervane , of Gabriel’s horn. I turned around, and stopped to look at it. It was lovely. I am taken by angels, particularly Gabriel who is an archangel. It is my youngest son’s name, and my husband’s Hebrew name (Gavriel). It spoke to me. And a couple of weekends before, I had stopped at a church to take a picture of a similar weathervane on top of a church In Newbury Port, Massachusetts. All good reasons to buy it.
But, it was expensive. I talked to the owner of the antique place, and haggled the price down. Now I have a beautiful weathervane in my back garden. An antique. I like to think that it is guarding over us. Just like those souls who have gone before us.
