Can birds be in love?

Can birds be in love?
Birds sing, fly, mate, lay eggs, build nests, poop on people's cars because that is how their creator made them to be. They were made to sing songs that bring joy to father. He made them like that and enjoys them Just the way they are. Do you think they know why their Doing what they do? Do you think they do it out of love for father? So do you think they are madly in live with him and would do anything to please him?

Sitting outside today on a bright sunny day under a beautiful blue sky, I listened to the birds sing their song and pondered these questions. I felt the cool air blow on me and was enveloped in the presence of father. I found myself wondering why the birds seem so happy and content in their little happy lives-they were created to sing and that's what they do. I have no doubt this brings joy to father when he hears them sing. I can imagine him smiling and just doting on the praises of his creation, fully in love with them. He's been showing me lately that this is how he feels about me. He looks at me with pleasure in his eyes, so happy to enjoy the person he made me to be.

I asked God to show me this love and passion that he has for me in everything I do today. Not just when I take time to stop and see the beauty around me, but all the time. Stop and let God show you his love today, let yourself take a minute and be in love with father because his love for you, is never ending.

Matthew 6:26 "Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?"
