Puffed Up

Right in front of us sat this tiny bird in a high wind. He was struggling to keep his balance, and was all puffed up to keep warm. No other birds around. It made me wonder about him...





 “If you puff yourself up, you’ll get the wind knocked out of you. But if you’re content to simply be yourself, your life will count for plenty.”

Matthew 23
