Throughout the pandemic lockdown in the spring, we enjoyed a variety of birds at our bird feeder, even observing birds not just of another feather, but those species that shouldn't have even appeared in this part of the country or at that time of year.
Sometime in May, we ran out of bird seed. We took down the feeder, because the only visitor was an insistent squirrel who dined like a football player at an all-you-can-eat buffet.
Just in the past week, Bill hung the bird feeder back up on the deck and filled it.
Within minutes, a bright red cardinal appeared. Within an hour or two, a chorus.
We had no idea the immense beauty just waiting in the trees beyond our sight.
By what wonders are we surrounded every day? God makes visible the invisible, that of which we are so unaware. Are we even watching for the fingerprints of His glory in our day?
Now to Him
who is able to do far more abundantly
than all that we ask or imagine,
according to the
power at work within us,
to Him be glory....
Ephesians 3. 20
The words of the old 1905 hymn still sing true and strong today in 2020, even in this strange year. Click here.
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know
He watches over me.
