Despite their fragility,
in body and on branch,
the birds sang on
in delicate harmony.
Thunder and lightening,
driving wind and rain
did not change their spirit!
We have much to learn from them!

BUT WE ARE SAVED – SOAR!
April 17, 2017The sad little bird,
caged for so long,
hopelessly yearned to fly.
One day,
the cage door was open!
But still he stayed inside,
not knowing what it was
to be free!

What I Learned From A Bird Outside My Window
February 7, 2017I Wonder . . .
Does the bird
on the branch of the tree in my yard
ponder
“Do I sing out of tune?”

THE LISTENING HEART
March 22, 2016Oh you clanging bells!
I hear you not!
For the chirping of a single sparrow
has made off with my heart!

Matthew 6:26
26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?

MUSIC LESSON

The bird does not
sing because he’s happy.
He is happy
because he sings!
You choose.

DO YOU SUPPOSE
February 22, 2016Does the bird
on the branch of the tree in my yard
ponder
“Do I sing out of tune?”
