it's been a while here....this few days has been hectic for me but am glad am here now.
The bird that flies away from it's nest is all about a bird hatched in it's nest, nurtured and taken care of in it's nest,the bird is given everything she desires until she grew up and sees other birds flying about,she decided to join them but her mom says"don't join them they are different from us,we don't stay in the same nest,we don't have the same colour and we don't have the same goal,it might be dangerous out there be careful".
But the little bird refuses listen,she decided to fly and mix with other birds, surprisingly for her she met wide range of different dangerous birds out there,At first she enjoys flying with them until they took her away from her nest which was her source,she forgot completely about her source,She met with the eagle and the eagle lovingly decieved her,she followed the eagle to it's place and that was the end. But before she died the eagle told her this "I have been watching you since when you were young and I have been waiting to eat you ever since but you have always been protected by your mum,she didn't allow you to leave her nest(source) but since you grew up you made up your mind to leave your source and am so happy because you didn't go back because if you had went back your mom will take you back and protect you from me again,but now I will devour you and that will be your end" the eagle said.
Now brothers and sisters,this my story is applicable to us as Christians ,we let world rule us instead of we ruling the world,we want to join what people outside are doing which might definitely lead to destruction. The Bible says in proverbs 14vs12 "There is a way that seems right to men but it's end is the way of death".
We are like the small bird in this story,we feel we don't need God's leading and directions anymore because we are now grown ups and we feel we are wise enough to direct ourselves and we think we know what is good for us but we are not! We are still kids in the hands of God. If we believe we are wise ,he said he will turn the wisdom of the wise to foolishness. He said in his word in James 4vs4 "whosoever will therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
My dear friends the enemy is waiting for you to leave your source and forget about it completely so he can come and destroy completely,the moment you leave the shield of God and mingle with the world and ignore his directions,the enemy is already waiting to destroy you and put an end to your glorious future,the enemy is ready to put you in a circle where you won't move forward but just fixed in a position. John 10vs10 says" the thief does not come except to steal, kill and destroy"....
But the good news is,even if you've moved far away from him,he is ready to take you back,no matter how far you've gone or whatever you've done,he is ready to take you back. Jesus is a loving father,if you genuinely go back to him he will accept you again and shield you against the wicked ones.
Go back and enjoy his presence, he's always there with a open arms.🥰
