Birds of the Air

God is such a God of detail!   That thought brought me comfort yesterday as I was thinking on the chaos in our world. 

When you think on the birds of the air (just the ordinary birds) and how God has used them, it brings hope.  I began thinking on the stories in the Bible where God used birds…

•It was a bird that let Noah know the earth had dried after the flood.  

•God had birds fly in low and slow over the children of Israel in the wilderness so they could catch them and eat them.  

•The birds fed Elijah as he lived by the brook—until the brook dried up.  

•God sent birds to eat the remains of the Philistines after David killed Goliath.  

•God feeds the birds of the air and says we’re more valuable than them.  

I could give many more illustrations, but you get the point.  If God can direct birds to feed a man for months, He’s committed to taking care of the smallest details of our lives.  

He’s got it covered…every last detail.
