One of my feathered friends has flown south. Even though I have been very busy in the ministry, playing with the grandchildren, working in the house, there is an emptiness. I look at the blogging site of "Birds of a Feather," hoping to read another exciting adventure in bird watching, and much to my disappointment there is no blog. But, I know as sure as the sun rises each day, she will return like the dawning of spring and then there will be joy again!

Talking about birds, I would like to share a thought provoking poem I read ( author unknown). It is an encouraging reminder to all of us who at times may become anxious over life's necessities. It underscores God's love and concern for people.
-
Said the sparrow to the robin:
"I should really like to know
Why these anxious human beings
Rush about and worry so."
-
Said the robin to the sparrow:
"Friend, I think that it must be that they have no Heavenly Father
Such as cares for you and me!"
-
Of course Jesus said it first so well at Matthew 6:25,26; and Luke 12:6,7. May we always remember that, whenever we become anxious - "observe intently the birds of heaven."

This is Raven-as the crow flies!
