The Birds of the Sky

The birds of the sky nest by the waters; they sing among the branches. He waters the mountains from his upper chambers; the land is satisfied by the fruit of his work. — Psalm 104:12-13

Bird Perched on Sprinkler Head

God created the birds of the sky in all of their glorious colors.

He made their tiny wings.

And he gave them the songs that they sing.

I love hearing them chirp throughout the day.

Last week we saw a hawk swoop down out of the sky onto the bank in our back yard.

Then we noticed that he had caught one of the bunnies who nibbles the red apple on our bank.

Fortunately, the bunnies are very prolific.

And hawks need their dinner, just as we do.

God created all of the various species and  give the birds their feathers.

He created you and me, too.

And He put a song in our hearts.
