Some birds are outside the chapel window making a racket and distubing my peace of mind! Wait a minute. Did not God make all creation to praise God? I read that in the psalms. So God made those birds to sound just like they sound. They are praising God. Who am I to complain? A guy who wants what he wants when he wants it would describe me at these times.

That would describe all of us at times or should I say most times. Thanks for reminding us to sit quietly and gain perspective.
ReplyDeleteHah! You describe me when I complain about the birds singing at 4AM. I miss them terrible in the cold and dark of winter yet in the summer I will stagger out of bed at o' dark-thirty to close the window to drown out the chatter.
ReplyDeleteI guess the birds are further along in their spiritual practice than I. I have never praised God at 4AM. I have a lot to learn.
