| Jeremiah 1:5 – “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” |
I remember, when I was going through a very lost time of wandering, when I saw the birds that landed on the ground make a line by the road, and all crossed the road. I mean walked across the road! It was at a time God kept telling me, “No matter what you hear or see, remember, to not let the tragedies that surround you, or the planet. bring you down. I am in control, I will take care of everything so just trust me. Now, trust me to take care of you.”
These birds walked! In a single file, then paired off, talking to one another as they crossed two by two. If God can cause these birds, that seemingly flutter in the sky at random, to come down upon the Earth and walk across the street, man, what can’t He do? I remember another day a flock of birds, there must have been close to 100, flew behind a narrow co-op across the street from where I live. Then as if a vortex had sucked them in just simply vanished! Not one bird, not one, came out from behind that narrow building, nor was anywhere to be seen.
So you see? God does what He wants. All He wants, is to let you and I know, He can do anything. He just wants to be trusted. Doesn’t it feel good when somebody trusts us? He will truly move heaven and Earth to prove it. He sent His Only Begotten Son, to redeem us. When we trust Him, there is nothing that He will not do to prove it. Consider the fact that He doesn’t make mistakes. We are all here for a reason. To believe in that love and to love others with His love. You were meant to be loved, my friend. All we have to do, you and I, is to believe it is true, then you to will see the birds and all things, including yourself, do,what we never dreamed was possible. Just trust.
