A few months ago, in service, I had an impression of a robin’s nest with a robin nursing her young.  It is like we are being gently nurtured and growing.  

Robins are ordinary, common small songbirds, they are one of the first birds to emerge after winter, signifying new beginnings. But they are productive, laying up to 3 broods in a breeding season, that’s about 9-15 chicks in 3 months.  

Perhaps like the robin, you feel ordinary, small, and common.  But you can be productive too!  So don’t overthink and take flight with your God given gifts!

“Have I not told you? Be strong and have strength of heart! Do not be afraid or lose faith. For the Lord your God is with you anywhere you go.”
Joshua 1:9 (NLT)
