One of my favorite quotes comes from a sermon I heard a while back:
"God feeds the birds, but he doesn't throw the worms into their nest."
I was watching the robins out my window this afternoon. They're eating from the feeder (yes, I feed birds year round), drinking out of the birdbath I'm now feeling guilty for not cleaning recently (guess what I'll be doing as soon as I'm off of here), and scratching around in my frozen garden (evidently not all bugs freeze). The little feathered creatures are being amazingly industrious on this cold grey day. Because of them, I will be making myself get out of my pj's, put some real clothes on, and get something accomplished this afternoon. After all, half of a day sitting here comfy in my "nest" hasn't produced a single "worm".
