His Eye Is On The Sparrow!

This past week has been especially stressful, and to be honest

there were times I felt like the wind had been knocked

out of me! I am ashamed to say that I have indulged myself

in a few self pity-parties. I had one of those weeks that I

felt like God was a million miles away and really could care

less about me and my problems! Well, it took a little bird

to shake me back to reality. As we were leaving for church

this morning, Rob discovered a little sparrow that was "dying"

on our front porch. He was on his back and was jerking and

gasping for air. I swooped up this little bird and held him in

my hand. Nothing seemed broken and he wasn't bleeding so

I begin to think he had flown into our glass storm door and

had knocked the wind out of himself. I carefully placed him

on the bench in our flowerbed, rubbed his little head and told

him it would be okay. We left for church and I wondered if

he would be dead when we got back. Well, when we arrived

back home we checked on the status of the little sparrow and

he had flown away! God used that little bird to let me know

that everything would be okay. His eye is on the sparrow

and I know he watches me!
