So, this is no major biblical study or theology lesson. Just a cool lil story. I was eating lunch at wendys the other day. As I sat in my truck munching on the best fries around, a seagull came to my window, I begin to feed him lil pieces of fries. He was very happy and begins yelling and so on. Of course his buddies caught on pretty quick. But, he would not let even one of them land. So...I felt bad. They where hovering over the parking lot watching me feed this guy. Then I wondered something...see I had seen the one on the ground catch a few pieces when they where close to him. The way a dog will. Then I wondered...will they catch it when flying. I started out by holding the fries up out of my truck window. They started to fly closer but where still all bunched together. I would toss The fry up. And sure enough, one would catch it. Then a funny thing started to happen. As I would hold up the fry they backed off and one at a time would swoop in, I would launch it and the dive bombing gull would catch it every time. I even saw one stop mid dive to grab one I shot over its head. Amazing birds. So smart and built to fly through the worst of weather, which makes them almost like freestyle trick birds. I ended up losing my entire box of French fries but I had a moment with nature u only get once in a great while in the city. Then I thought, if God made these smart, beautiful birds then how much more amazing is he. And if God made this entire world, and all of man kind, how much more amazing is he. If God made all of space and time and all the wonders therein, how much more amazing is he!
Much much more amazing, and things like this only give us a small glimpse of the glory and majesty of our God.
