The Lord Directs to Put Your Security In Him

A. J. Gordon noted that if you tear down a sparrow’s nest the little bird will build again in the same place. However, if you pull it down several times, she will seek a new location—a shelter higher up—where it will be less vulnerable. Gordon then observed that Christians are not always so wise. They form dwelling places of happiness and hope in this temporal world, only to see them pulled down time after time. Yet after each brief interval of sighs and tears, they begin building all over again in the same way. They never realize that through their defeats the Lord is directing them to put their security in Him.
