Then and There

This morning as I was hanging clothes on the line. A bird was singing its song. I often hear words in different bird's calls. Like when I hear a cardinal it is saying pretty. I do not know what kind of bird I heard this morning but to me this bird today sounded like it was saying redeemer.

I had to smile and give praise as I tended my laundry with this simple reminder of things greater than this present world. I have a Redeemer! He came and saved me of my sins and gave me much to look forward to. No pressing matter or trying situation should over shadow that fact. This time and these things that cause me to worry are tiny in comparison to eternity in heaven with this Redeemer, Jesus.

Psalm 148

¹Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.

²Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.

³Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.

⁴Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.

⁵Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.

⁶He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.

⁷Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:

⁸Fire, and hail; snow, and vapours; stormy wind fulfilling his word:

⁹Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:

¹⁰Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:

¹¹Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:

¹²Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:

¹³Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.

¹⁴He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD.

I needed this today, this week, this month. It has been a rough one. I have cried out to God and worried(to no avail) and He heard me!

51. Matthew 6:26
    Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?
