More than Sparrows

My grandmother, known to us as Mamaw, has always loved birds. I don't think a birthday went by where she didn't receive a bird house, or a bird book, or binoculars to look at the birds, or a bird puzzle, or a bird clock that chirps, or a bird feeder...you get the picture. She loves birds. Mamaw also has cancer. She's been fighting cancer for several years now. Mamaw also has Jesus and will have Him for eternity. Jesus has been her treasure for as long as I can remember. My mom sent me a picture a few weeks back that took my breath away. It's a cumulation of God expressing His love to my Mamaw in bringing something she loves close enough to gaze upon without binoculars. Our God is good. And He is good to us.


"Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?"
Matthew 6:25-26
