The Lord is my
strength and shield.
I trust him with all my heart. He helps me,
and my heart is filled with joy.
I burst out in songs of thanksgiving.
Psalm 28:7 NLT
From
my library window, I enjoy nature in
action as the squirrels and birds entertain me. Today, I watched the
blue scrub jays land on the neighbor's sixty-foot fir trees. They
perched on the highest branch giving them a view more spectacular
than from the ground. Their flight looked effortless, but the feat
did not belong to the newly hatched. Birds need experience and
strength in their wings to fly so high.
Do you have a 'tree' or 'mountain' to climb today? A
challenge or task above your reach? Occasionally, we have
opportunities from the Lord that appear beyond our strength or
ability. When these times come, pray for the Lord to direct your
steps and your days. He leads as we commit to following His will.
The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord,
And He delights in his way.
Psalm 37:23 KNJV
