It's a soft and cool rainy day today here in San Antonio, Tx. As I was spending time with the Lord, just enjoying the coolness of the air, several birds of the sky caught my eye. I began to reminisce of when I would feed the birds over at my last place. They would follow me and sing to me in the neighborhood I lived in last.
Last night, I fed the birds over here at my new place, and the birds this morning were flying in to sing to me. I am filled with so much gratitude. As I felt excited to get to know my angels over here, a thought began to form in my mind, "Birds, just like angels, are like the wind. Always going where the Spirit takes them. Just like the birds the wind carries, you cannot tell where the Spirit will blow next."
The Lord took me to John 13:4-5 this morning and began to explain to me a significance. Jesus laid aside his own garments, covered himself with a towel, and washed the disciples' feet. This reminds me of Ezekiel, when God instructed him to prophesy to the wind and bones in the valley, and how the Lord covers us with his "skin", which is His righteousness. This passage from John also reminds me of Mary, Martha's sister, how while weeping, she anointed Jesus' feet with an excellent aroma and washed His feet with her hair.
The hour is upon us, a time when many will be shown that the time is near when we will depart from this world and ascend back up to the Father. This doesn't mean wait for a physical death to return to God. No, this also means that the hour of our salvation is here, and he has sent His angels concerning you to watch over and protect you. Your care and watchful nature is a pleasing aroma to the Lord and soon you will share in His glory with not just yourself but with others. I pray this word edifies your spirit and you find comfort in Hs presence. I love you. Jesus loves you. Shalom Shalom
