Quote of the Day

"A wise bird knows that a scarecrow is simply an advertisement.  It announces in the most forceful and picturesque way that in the garden which it does its best to adorn, some very juicy and delicious fruit is to be had for the picking.  There are scarecrows in all the best gardens.  Every thoughtful bird learns in time to regard a scarecrow as an invitation to a banquet.  He feels as a hungry man feels when he hears the dinner bell ring, and swoops down upon the delicacies to which the scarecrow calls him.  If I am wise I too shall treat the scarecrow as thou it were a dinner bell....Every giant in the way which makes me feel like a grasshopper is only a scarecrow beckoning me to God's richest blessings.  Faith is a bird which loves to perch on scarecrows.  She knows that there are scarecrows where there are strawberries.  All our fears are groundless."  ~ Frank Boreham
