Isn't it cool that God made the bright-colored, king-sized parrot called the macaw? God gave macaws many special features, such as beaks that are designed to crack open hard nuts and seeds, and streamlined bodies that enable them to fly through the dense forests without running into trees.

Parrots are also known to have been kept by pirates as trusted pets. Our macaw reminds us that the most trustworthy relationship we can have by far is not with a pet or with a person, but with God. Although relationships with pets and people can be special, God is the greatest, most trustworthy, and ever-faithful friend any who believes and calls on His name can ever have.
