Meet Mr. Black Crake

This little guy is so darn cute, (it’s a Black Crake) my initial thought was his feet are awfully big for his body. Then almost immediately I thought what a great analogy of having a strong and firm foundation in Christ Jesus. The impression that this little guys feet are shouting…I will stand firm, no matter what comes my way. As a Christian, this photo tells me, the more grounded I am in the teachings of Christ Jesus and allow myself to be immersed in a faith community I can also say…”I will stand firm in the days of trials and temptations” my adaptation of Ephesians 6:11. My hope is you can relate to my interpretation of a seemingly, generic photo of a cute bird; to the wonders of God’s boundless love, grace and mercy for all His creation.

Ephesians 6:11(NLT) “Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil.

~Blessings and Peace~
