If everything in creation has been created for a purpose by God, then it is a gross error to be angry (“sass”) creatures. Hearing some pesky birds squawking rambunctiously in the trees overhead after work produced the following peeved response, “Shut up, birds!” Afterwards, I felt like I had overstepped my imago boundaries and shown my clear lack of understanding of God’s creation. (Suppressing the truth?) Is their squawking the way in which they bring glory to God? For they have been created with purpose in the divine mind. Should I silence them?
