BUMPER STICKERS AND CHICKENS

    The hen lays her eggs, and then keeps them warm and safe until they hatch. What would happen if half way through the process she decided to crack open the eggs to see how things were progressing? Chickens are not the sharpest tools in the shed, yet they understand their role in creation. The hen demonstrated faith in the process, knew if she did her job, the miracle of creation would follow. Living on the Spiritual Basis, the basis of trusting and relying on God, when faced with trouble or difficulty our job is to place them in God’s hands, then let go.


     I saw a bumper sticker long ago that summed it up nicely “Thanks, but I got this, I really don’t need your help. God.” Place your problems in His hands and let Him work. We can learn much from the hen and occasionally from bumper stickers.
