Text : Luke 13:34.
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets and stones to death those who have been sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you people were unwilling!*
The Bible frequently encourages us to learn from animals, not by adopting their behavior directly, but by observing their behaviors, diligence, and wisdom; and gleaning goodly wisdom from them.
Today, we shall continue to look into the behavioral pattern of a mother hen and glean one or two wisdom from her.
1.) *Love and Protection:*
The hen fiercely protects her chicks from predators, demonstrating a strong bond of love and care. This emphasizes the importance of nurturing and defending those we love and care for.
It's very appalling to see how some parents are so nonchalant in the raising of the goodly children which God has committed into their hands.
*It is your responsibility as a parent to love and shield your wards and those within your circle of influence from predators through teachings, praying, caring and unflinching love.*
One dimension of God that the devil does not want Christians to come into is love for one another. See to it that you obey this great commandment.
2.) *Persistence and Determination:*
Even if not all eggs hatch, the hen will continue laying and nurturing future clutches, showcasing her persistence and unwavering hope. This highlights the importance of learning from setbacks and continuing to strive for success.
.
Psalms 92:14 have this to say concerning you, *They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;**
Regardless of your age, and not minding the challenges of the past, God promises you fruitfulness in as much as you are always connected to Him.
*Prayer Focus*
1. Father Lord, fill my heart with your love and help me never to be weary in well- doing in Jesus name.
