DAILY?READINGS: Gen. 38; Psalms 15-16; Matt. 21:33 to 22:14
Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap… yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Matthew 6:26
The beehive ginger is an exquisite tropical plant—true to its shapely name. Its gold, red, pink or chocolate coloured cluster is formed like a honeycomb—which stores water in the rainy season. Birds looking to drink in the hot, humid rainforest find cool refreshment from this “honeycomb”. What a reminder of God’s extraordinary care in looking after His creation! He ensures there is provision for all. And He promises, “Do not be anxious about your life” (v. 25, ESV), to do the same for us. Will you trust Him today? —Deborah Manera
Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth,
Would care to know my name,
Would care to feel my hurt?
