Effortlessly
Feathers work with sky
Effortlessly, and so birds fly...
Feathers catch the air
And birds soar unaware
of effort, for they take wing
because it’s meant to be.
Everything about a bird
Is made for flight.
Their shape, their hearing
And even their sight.
Everything about our being
Is made to know and love the Lord,
Intimately...
Our hearing and seeing
Our heart leans toward
His voice, that calls
us and woos us to be
exactly what He’s
created us for.
As bird’s feathers work with the sky
Effortlessly, they soar, they dive
And gravity, they defy
as daily they do what they’re
perfectly designed to do.
The best way to fly is to be light...
Birds know to use turbulence
To their advantage, and they learn to
ride the currents of air
that are rising upward...
As we allow our hearts to be light
To use difficulty and adversity
To our advantage
We can ride the currents
of air that are rising upward
and we will fly...
effortlessly...
It’s usually not a battle, but a mystery
That a bird lifts their wings to fly
so it shouldn’t be a battle
for us to be who we’re born to be
to lift our spiritual wings and fly.
A bird’s wings can become damaged
and the bird is earthbound for awhile
as it’s feathers heal.
Be encouraged , my friend,
God’s with you in each trial.
His purposes for your days
He promises to reveal.
So, set your face toward the endless blue
Feel the breeze catch your feathers
Allow your keen vision to see the view
Of destiny’s colors blending together
In a finished painting of life.
So, remember, you’re meant to sing
And to spread your wings
And soar
To fly high above the troubles of this world
And see His pleasures and plan unfurled
In you, a bird made perfectly for flight.
And Father, Son and Spirit’s delight.
Effortlessly.
