Humble Gets To Eat 12/21/2024

 Good Morning,

In front of me I have a very hot cup of Door County Naughty Or Nice Grog and it is just what was needed for this cold December morning.

Romans 12:16 Live in harmony with one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Never be wise in your own sight. 

For about two years now my wife Rene and I have been feeding the birds that call our front yard their home. We are not bird experts at all. We just enjoy seeing what visits the feeder each day. To be honest we only know what a few of them are. Their patterns however are predictable. When there is going to be a weather change like rain, or snow, or colder temperatures the birds are more aggressive with the feeder. The smaller birds rustle up their food and much of it falls to the ground where the larger birds eat from what is spilled. It is amazing to see the larger birds being fed by the actions of the tiny little birds. 

What's the lesson for today? Well here we go. The larger birds learned to be polite and seem to appreciate an assistance from the wee ones. They never hassle the little workers and glean from their work.  

So as we go through life, let's not get pumped up because of our status or importance. Let's make sure that we appreciate all the work done on our behalf and say thank you to all who make this world of ours a better place. Each person is important to God and should be important to us. Learn to be humble and you just might see the work that goes into sustaining your life. Appreciate others!

Have a great day!

Marty
