There is an interesting phrase found in Psalm 104: 16. It says "the trees of the Lord are full of sap." The birds make their refuge in these trees yet they don't belong to the birds. They belong to the Lord. The next verse talks about the high hills where the wild goats live. The goats make homes in the caves of the hills, yet the hills belong to the Lord as well. There is a point here we all need to consider. It is about trusting God. Jesus told us in Luke chapter 12 to consider the birds of the air. They don't work, nor do they save for the winter. Yet God takes care of them. Why? Because somehow they understand that the trees belong to God and he will always see that they have food. God is so careful to take care of the birds that not even one of them dies without him knowing. Matthew 10:29.
If God takes such good care of the birds of the air, don't you think he will take care of his children? We talk about having the faith of a child but perhaps we should have the faith of a bird. Just understand that it all belongs to God, do what we know to do, and let him care for us. It really is that simple.
