“His Eye is on the Sparrow”
Humming Bird Perched on Her Nest
“My soul yearns, even faints,
for the courts of the Lord
my heart and my flesh cry out
for the Living God.
Even the sparrow has found a home,
and the swallow a nest for herself,
where she may have her young–
a place near your altar,
Lord Almighty, my King and my God.
Blessed are those who dwell in your house
they are ever praising you.” Psalm 84:2-4 NIV
The sparrow, the swallow, and the little humming bird above know the peace and love that are found near the Lord’s dwelling place. Our hearts should also long to dwell close to the richest of gifts found in the presence of our Lord and King. The one true God.

My kids all had guesses as to what the nest is made of. Do you know? Hair, spider webs, dryer lint, or animal fur?
