When I saw it, peace flooded over me.
I realized in an instant that I was seeing God at work. While war rages around us and we wring our hands in worry, He does this. He makes the sun shine and the birds sing. In the midst of trouble He causes tomatoes to rippen and flowers to bloom, rain to fall and seasons to change. He is not surprised. He is not anxious. He is never afraid. And he is forever coming up with new ways to help his creation enjoy the freedom He has provided. .
For centuries man has used a bell to sound an alarm but for this feathered family, the bell is a refuge from the storm. God is so original. Sometimes I need to be reminded that He is still in charge.
My guess is that you do, too.
I hope this painting can help do that for you.
