After 16 months of gentle watching, my most timid budgie landed on my hand for the first time. It was a quiet, heartwarming moment—but it also opened my eyes to how God must feel when we begin to trust Him. Even the smallest step of faith brings Him joy. This post shares some unexpected lessons from a timid budgie—and how she's reshaping the way I see trust in God for my art business and life.

When my lovebird Chewy-TooToo needed antibiotics for a tail wound, it meant daily restraint and separating him from his buddy, Henry—who wasn’t happy about it! While the process was hard, it was for Chewy-TooToo’s healing. This reminded me how life’s challenges often feel unfair, yet God, like a loving caretaker, allows them for our good. We may not understand now, but we can trust His hand, knowing it’s always working to protect and heal us in ways we can’t yet see.

My lovebird Baby 'Ting brought healing, and a dream of his heavenly flight freed me from guilt and inspired me to create meaningful artwork.

Find out how my budgie's persistent actions echo the way my late sister would communicate with me, conveying more than words ever could!
