Dear God,

 Just now the mother bird popped back into her birdhouse to feed her young.  Just after battling with a worm in the dirt, she chews it up and then flies to her babies to give them what they need to live and grow.  The wonder of motherhood and creation's design for tender care causes me to give thanks.

But then I realize you care for us too.  You provide for us just like the mother bird.  The blueberries I ate two days ago, the water I drank a few minutes ago and the cereal I will eat at breakfast all came from you.  You are Mother Bird to us providing, giving and loving us.

Holy God,

thank you

for daily gifts

of food,

fellowship and love.

Thank you

for tending to

our needs.

Thank you

for blessing us

so we

can be

Mother Bird's too.

Love, Andrea
