"Eat Your Fill"

Cedar Waxwing
"Then the land will yield its fruit, and you will eat your fill and live there in safety."
Leviticus 25:19

Cedar Waxwings are my favorite bird. This morning I went for a walk in the woods on Farm Island and found a flock of Cedar Waxwings foraging for fruit. Farm Island is fairly well devasted from the Great Missouri River Flood of 2011, but there is still fruit on some of the trees. As I watched the waxwings eating their fill of juniper berries and other fruit, I thought of the promise of God in Leviticus 25, "Then the land will yield its fruit, and you will eat your fill and live there in safety." Matthew 6:26 certainly is correct, "Your Heavenly Father feeds them." If God takes care of the birds, He will certainly take care of us.
