I think your counselors were correct in telling you that when we offer a "false" offering, they refuse to find their own answers. Maybe, this is selfish on my part: Wanting to see the birds and enjoy the squirrels feasting. <br />Yet, I am reminded of the feast the Lord spreads for us. How could I ignore my created friends when I have the ability to do so? Just have to!<br />Love and blessings!Martha Jane Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620499267401065780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-85103471375433568372014-01-30T23:19:58.943-08:002014-01-30T23:19:58.943-08:00I love what you wrote here.

I remember that bird feed post ;) <br /><br />In our conference on Paradigm shift, we were told how intelligent our animal life forms are... and even our formators would tell us that the Lord created them for survival skills and adapt to seasonal changes... I saw migratory birds in Davao the other day on TV. They settled here because it's too cold in their place...<br /><br />Anyhow... I was amazed at the reason why the birds didn't come to the new feeder (it is so beautiful!)... Truly fascinating!<br /><br />Thank you for this wonderful reflection. The Lord really loves us ~ how generous He is to us. I pray with you!Melissa Tandochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13747825707650125721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-13697958658698542202014-01-23T12:37:25.708-08:002014-01-23T12:37:25.708-08:00Thanks so much for visiting, Betty! Glad to know ...Thanks so much for visiting, Betty! Glad to know you are a fellow bird watcher and that you enjoy feeding them. We've had a time with the squirrels, too, but they can't easily get on these feeders the way we have them rigged. I always make sure to leave seed on the ground for them and for the mourning doves. :)<br />Love and blessings!Martha Jane Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620499267401065780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-83347749043240733422014-01-23T10:54:39.505-08:002014-01-23T10:54:39.505-08:00Oh Martha, I love this post...I feed the birds too...Oh Martha, I love this post...I feed the birds too and God has taught me some precious lessons as I watch them. My only sorrow is that we live too far south in California for red birds. We even have a couple of pesky squirrels that come around.

As for focusing on the crumbs, I'm to often guilty as charged. May we all seek the feast instead. :)<br />Love and blessings!Martha Jane Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620499267401065780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-27173172632716263802014-01-22T14:01:44.056-08:002014-01-22T14:01:44.056-08:00This was a really amazing post.
