Matthew 6:26 (KJV) Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
Nature can teach us spiritual lessons. The God who is kind to birds will not forget His own children. But even birds do not sit on a limb and expect God to drop food in their mouths. They build their nests and gather the food God provides.
We have many responsibilities that cause fear, depression, and anxiety. We grow anxious over our job, financial security, or the roof over our head. We also continually worry about the future of our children or the strength of our family bond. We are frightened by physical ailments and spiritual conflicts Satan places in our path. Jesus loving reminds us that God cares for the little birds of the air. If His love is powerful enough to provide for them, imagine the power of the love He has for us.
