The neat and tidy robin’s nest with four perfect
eggs nestled deep within came alive today. I heard
it before I saw it. Desperate cries creating a sweet
chorus. While the mother bird flew back and forth
with food for those hungry mouths I got closer to
inspect the new arrivals.
I couldn't help but notice how they craned their
little necks high in the air and with all their might
threw hungry mouths wide open.

How silly it looked but how practically it touched
my heart.
“Open your wide your mouth and I will fill it”
He can’t fill a closed mouth. It’s the truth. There is
an abundance of provision for each day-are we
ready for it? The only way to be ready for all that
Grace is to open your heart…not just a crack but
wide open like these little birds.
Sometimes we’re fearful to open wide because we
don’t completely trust Him. We’re afraid that he’ll
place something in our mouths that we might choke
on…or maybe it wont taste good.
The best way to overcome this fear is to open your
heart and close your eyes.
You’ll soon find out He is a good
Father and always delivers the best.

Father You Are
~Joe Garrity
Jesus you are still on your throne
Lord we embrace what you allow
Be still, my soul, and know He is God
He is faithful, He is loving
In his kindness He allows what is best
