When you have shot one bird flying you have shot all birds flying. They are all different and they fly in different ways but the sensation is the same and the last one is as good as the first.

In almost everything that touches our everyday life on earth God is pleased when we're pleased. He wills that we be as free as birds to soar and sing our maker's praise without anxiety.

There are joys which long to be ours. God sends ten thousands truths which come about us like birds seeking inlet but we are shut up to them and so they bring us nothing but sit and sing awhile upon the roof and then fly away.
