I was looking on my calender for this month earlier and this is the quote I saw. It got me thinking about how many things in the world defy all odds. Scientists have tried to conjure up all different explanations for this impossible occurrence, but they won't admit that maybe some things in this world can't be explained. It's human nature to try and make sense of everything. If something doesn't fit just perfectly with or standardizations we have to find an explanation. Squeeze it into something uncomfortable. So, what if the bumble bee really can fly? Oh wait, it can!
What would the bumble bee think if it saw us bickering over it flying. What if it knew that it's body weight shouldn't be able to fly with it's tiny wings? Would it scoff at our nonsense? Well sometimes I think God does. He sees all that we do to try and understand the world. We have made the principals of flight, equation of a line and even the alphabet. Everything falls under a certain category. Everything must have an answer, right? Wrong.
Look at the love God has for us, as an example. We think that we know what it's like to love someone with everything we have. We think we know what it may be like to be God. Loving everyone equally, even though some of us don't even love You in return. We try to look at it with our own perspective. Our mortal perspective. We give up on God, because we think that He could never love us like He claims. Truth is, He does with all his heart. Sure, we don't, but we're not Him. He loves you not for your looks, not for what you have done or what you'll become. He loves you because you are His. He is constantly giving you gifts, like the ones from your grandparents on your birthday. The great part about his love is that we don't need to understand exactly where it comes from or why it happens. We should just embrace it in our hearts. Sort of like passing a math class without learning anything about it. As impossible as it seems, it can still happen. Our Lord wants us to know exactly that. He wants us to trust in Him, for He is the branch that will never break and the flower that will not fade. If we pay attention to the things that really matter, we could all get somewhere.
So be like the bumble bee. Defy all odds and prove everyone wrong. Jesus was everything we can't be, perfect. Don't think too hard about the impossible. Don't tell yourself that anything is impossible. Just keep reaching to the sky. See if you can make it a little higher than last time. Could you prove the world wrong again? The bumble bee did!
