I awoke today to the song of one bird singing to the sun not yet seen over the horizon. This little one chirped and sang as if the light of the day was already upon her with joy uncontainable. Pretty soon, you could hear another feathered friend join in the melody… and then another… and another. As the grey skies grew brighter and the sun’s rays reached out over the sleeping world, a full choir of songbirds sang from the depths of their hearts; my windows opened to the symphony of God’s morning arrangement. What a beautiful way to greet the day.
I think we have all had times when we’ve been a part of that rejoicing choir – when the sun is shining brightly and joy is uncontainable. Those moments are precious memories we treasure for a lifetime. I’ve had many of those times. Yet, I desire to be like that first little bird. She awoke to a dark world with grey skies, and yet, her little heart rejoiced in what was to come. She wasn’t discouraged by the darkness around her, nor was she dismayed by the clouds above. She simply knew that no matter what she awoke to, the sun would rise again. What a beautiful way to live – focused solely on the Son and His light with a beautiful song of hope that fills my heart. That is my desire, and my prayer is that your hearts would also be renewed with that trust and hope that is only found in our wonderful Creator and beautiful Savior.
“God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day.” ~Psalm 46:5
Bless and be blessed friends…
