On a stormy day the little ones left the nest. I saw them crouched in the grass since flying was something new and the wind added an element that they had not mastered. They were vulnerable and inexperienced. I am not certain any survived. Cats prowled the neighborhood, and they could not get back to the nest where they were safe.

The Bible tells us that humans who wander from their place are like birds that leave the nest (Proverbs 27:8). The birds have to go, and in the end so do we. Birds learn to fly very quickly. We take a long time to learn things that help us thrive and survive. Better to strengthen our wings before we wander, and then we too can fly.
