This morning during my walk, I heard the faint call of a bird as I walked by some bushes along the sidewalk. I stopped and looked in the direction of the gentle chirps and at once spied a young full grown bird. I froze in place as I studied this amiable creature. He looked fearlessly at me and he seemed to be speaking to me. I spoke softly to him and said, “Don’t be afraid my friend. I mean you no harm.” This little bird and I studied one another and I found myself thanking God because this bird was not fearful of me.
This reminds me of when we met and you called to me as delicately and tenderly as the little bird called to me this morning. You didn’t speak my name, rather your spirit touched mine. I knew you when I heard you because yours was the voice my soul yearned to hear. Just as if you have never known the Lord, you will know him when He speaks, you complimented me so well that you played the strings of my heart by the resonance of your voice upon my ears. Little did I know that you would build a nest for us. I am at home in our nest for it is an ‘us’ shaped nest. I wasn’t afraid when we met and you certainly had no reason to fear me. I was smitten from the first moment, I just didn’t realize it. You captivated me just like the little bird this morning. I thank God that I didn’t scare you away. A bird called to me this morning, but your voice calls to me every day and I thank our God for this great blessing.
