Flown the coop

Well our little bird apparently just needed some love and nourishment.... After it being fed and getting some water..We took it outside and placed it on the ground it went about hoping and looking back at us as if for approval... My little one was saddened by the little birds departure.  But, as I explained to her she did an excellent job tending to it and giving it nourishment enough that it would survive on its own.  That it was also better that it was back out in the wild in just a short period of time.  Because it wouldn't be dependent on us for food it still has its instincts about it and it would do just fine.

Funny how something so small can make one look at themselves.  No matter how broken we are or may seem to be. God can pick us up and give us love and nourishment from his word and we can get up and dust ourselves off.... and we can stand up on our own again living our lives for him.

No matter what kind of curve ball or lemons life throws our way.  We just have to know how to reach out to God for him to help us each and every day.  Just like the little bird that was stuck in the fence.. It made a couple of chirps enough that our daughters noticed it.  Brought it home and took care of it until it was strong enough to go back on its own.

Always keep your head up.  There's nothing in this life that can be as bad as it seems..  To us things are just horrible and there may not seem like there's any light out there for us.. But, just think there's always someone whose worse off than you.    Instead of focusing all that negative energy feeling sorry for yourself get up, dust yourself off and do something positive... if it's only writing a letter just to say "Hey I'm thinking of you" ...anything you can do to turn something into a positive is worth it.  In return your positive action may just cause a positive chain reaction.

God Bless

My children found a baby bird.. and brought it home.. It was stuck in a fence at the playground.. What loving children I have to show God's love to one of God's creatures... How precious.  It's amazing the little things that life has in store for us.... Reminding us that even though we can't fly he's always there to pick us up and help us... What a wonderful lesson this will teach us all about the miraculous joys that God has to show and the love he has instilled in us all.

God Bless
