This is her
original post: Everyday Faith: Window Birdie
(Both precious pictures credited to Bekah Wall and her blog Everyday Faith!)
First of all, how
awesome is that?! To be able to hold a baby birdie in the palm of
your hand!!! What a blessing!
But when I read
this post, I couldn’t help but think, “His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He
watches me!”
I left a comment
to this end on Bekah’s post, but THINK ABOUT THIS, dear sister!
If Almighty,
all-powerful God, Who created the entire universe and simply breathed
out stars that are so big, that if you compared earth to a golf ball then
compared that golf ball to the star, it would be the size of Mt. Everest—if
that God cares enough about a clumsy little birdie with a
penchant for flying into windows, that He has a young woman pop it’s little
wing back into place so it can fly again—if He cares that
much about a little defenseless bird, how much more does He care about
YOU, who are worth MUCH more to Him than MANY sparrows?!?!!?!?!?!?!!??!!?!??!
While talking
with my wise father about it, he brought out another interesting point:
both that little birdie and also one of our chickens that my little sister
Bethie just recently (and literally—it was so adorable!J)
nursed back to health, hung around, kept coming back to, and even clung
to it’s caretaker for comfort, nourishment, healing, and support while it was
still sick. Once it’s wing or it’s eyes were healed, it flew away (to go
do work to complete it’s original, created purpose!). The wounded bird clung
to its savior for help until it received it!
Oh how much both
of these examples can be applied to our lives as set-apart Princess Warriors
for Jesus Christ!
If you do anything,
dear sister, anything at all in response to this post, let it be that
you take comfort and joy in knowing that Almighty God cares so phenomenally
much about you! He loves you to pieces!
He wants you to cling to and abide in Him until (and even after! Lol)
you receive that healing comfort you so badly need!!!
Remember—Jesus
cares so much for even one of the tiniest of His creations to a have a
special young woman pop its wing back into place—So take heart, Dear
One! You are worth MUCH MORE to Him than many
baby birdies!!!!!
