The heron snatched the lizard up As quietly it slept When to its rescue out the door My wife in fury swept "No!Not this one!" She yelled and shook Her fist with flashing eyes So in dismay he turned to fly And dropped his newfound prize Then I recalled how I was lost Moving from town to town When all around me danger crept Looking to hunt me down But a voice so quiet yet so deep Echoed in my shadowlands "No! Not this One!" I heard Christ say Then He took my trembling hands!

This is beautiful!
Thanks Andy.
I praise God for His salvation too! Thank you for sharing this. I enjoyed it. Is the lizard in the picture the one saved?
No but my wife did take this photo and it was the same type of lizard. Our back yard and sun room are their favorite hangouts.
Nice! What kind of lizard is it? We don’t have anything like that here, as far as I’m aware.
That is an Anole. It is very common here in the Tampa bay area. We also have Geckos and Chameleons but they are more rare.
Thank you! It’s fun to learn about other areas . I didn’t know Geckos or Chameleons lived there, but I’ve never thought to look it up either! 🙂
