Sunday Blessing

A friend gave me these three blue eggs to symbolize our three children. Safe, warm, secure, nurtured in the nest, but with the goal of breaking out and flying away to their own world. I have one still "in the nest" and two that are testing out their wings. I guess I did my job right (sniff sniff) when that happens.

How much more so are we safe in God's hands. Isaiah 41:10 says,
"Don't panic. I'm with you.
There's no need to fear for I'm your God.
I'll give you strength. I"ll help you.
I'll hold you steady, keep a firm grip on you."

May that speak to you today. Have a great Sunday!

Reminds me of a quote by Hodding Carter that I like:

“There are two lasting bequests we can give our children: One is roots, the other is wings.”

What a lovely idea, the three colored eggs.
