The Birds of Heaven -
--The birds of the heavens...sing among the branches. --Psalm 104:12 ~~~ Birds were an inspiration to the Psalmist. In Psalm 104, he praises God for caring for the living creatures He has put on the earth. Included in his observations are birds who fly in the heavens above, perch in the branches of trees, and sing songs of heartfelt joy: "The birds of the heavens have their home; they sing among the branches" (v.12). Nature filled the Psalmist's heart with praise to God, and I think that must have included the musical sounds of the birds. Often the marvels we see in CREATION prompt us to worship. This theme is repeated throughout Scripture: "The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork" (Ps. 19:1). Creation's stimulus to praise need not be limited to the visual. It can also be widened to include hearing nature's songs. As we go about our daily routine, we can tune our hearts to the melodies God has placed in His creatures and let them serve as an added springboard of praise to the CREATOR, the Lord Jesus Christ. ~  ------ All of nature is a grand symphony conducted by the Creator. ~ODB/Blessings, in our Sovereign One!
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]
