Birds of Prey, and Us..

   As I read in Exodus 14 this morning, God looks after His own. Whether it be the Israelites confronted by the Egyptian army at the Red Sea, or even a sparrow falling to the ground in the normal everyday course of life.

   A friend sent me a URL to a website the other day, one that I kept in my favorites listing, and I noticed it on my computer this morning. I think its study and information fits right in with the thought of God's care for His.

   The site shows the pictures from a web cam, a nest cam actually, showing the happenings in a bald eagle nest where an eaglet has hatched just a few days ago.

   As I watch and as I read of the life of the bald eagle, their nesting habits, their mating for life, and their care for their young eaglet, I cannot help but think of Scripture that tells of God's care for His creatures and His creation. In Psalm 50:

"I know every mountain bird by name;"

   The care that this eagle pair give to the young in the nest is a testament to the way God has created them. It also shows how He takes care of all creation.

   If He shows that much care for birds, how about us?

" Look at the birds of the air, that they do not sow, nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they?"

   We need to live in the truth of our worth to God.

   Watching the eagles on the camera is fun, but the lesson for me is in how much he cares for me, and for each one of us.

   Look over the rest of the site above, especially the interview with the Berry College professor, their resident eagle expert, which is here:

   Everything that science learns about God's creation confirms the care with which He has created and sustained.

   Praise be to Him..
