To a Skylark

 


William Wordsworth in one of his poem "To a Skylark." writes about a skylark, a small bird known for its melodious song, and its encounter with a storm. The skylark gets caught in a storm and struggles to fly against the strong winds, but despite its efforts, it cannot make headway. Eventually, the skylark gives up and allows itself to be carried by the wind, expecting to meet its demise.

However, to the skylark's surprise, it is not met with a tragic end. Instead, it lands in a warm and pleasant meadow near the shore and begins to lead a comfortable life. Wordsworth uses this story to explore themes of nature's unpredictability and the idea that sometimes, when faced with adversity or challenges, life can take unexpected turns that lead to unexpected joy and comfort.

This poem is a reflection of Wordsworth's romantic and nature-oriented poetry, emphasizing the beauty and wonder of the natural world and the lessons it can teach us about life and resilience.

In our life also sometimes we will struggle against God’s plan.  After losing our strength we will give up the struggle.  The God’s grace will guide us towards His perfect plan for us.

  Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and He shall sustain thee. A manager of a company often come across big problems.   This gave him lot of worry.   To stop worrying about his problem, he did something.   He made a worry box.   He used to write down his problem that gave him worry and put it inside the worry box.   After putting inside the worry box he will force himself to stop worry about that problem.   After a week when he opened the worry box most of his problems were already solved.   Dear children of God we do have a worry box.   Put everything inside that worry box and you can stay calm and cool to watch those problems getting solved.   Yes dears, Jesus is our Worry Box.

  The Great Wall of China one of the wonders of this world is 4500miles long, 35feet high and 25feet wide.   Nobody can climb over it or demolish it.   The purpose of building this wall is to save China from the enemies attack.   But the enemies of China, Barbaians three times entered China.   They never climbed over the wall, they never demolished the wall, nor did they move around the wall.   They just entered through the main gate freely by bribing those security there.   In our life also our lack of self-control will lead us to great defeats.   We must control our spirit, thoughts, anger, emotions, lust, jealous and greed for money.   If we cannot control we will be unsafe.   Let us receive God’s grace to have real self-control in our life and be blessed.
