Lessons From a Hummingbird ~

This morning a little hummingbird got trapped in our foyer. The poor guy struggled and struggled to find it's way out, frantically hitting the ceiling. Finally, he fell to the floor exhausted, and couldn't even move. We set him out on our back step and watched him till he had the strength to fly away. I realized this is how we often are ~ we push and push, doing everything in our own power. Instead, we should stop and rely on Him to help us. He is in control, why is it often so hard to give it to Him, ask for His help in everything? Why does it often take us falling down exhausted to remember? He is there for us . . . . we only need to trust and call to Him. Thankful for this little reminder today:) "When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears, and rescues them from all their troubles." (Psalm 34:17)
