His eye is on the sparrow...

I have been thinking about birds nests. Did you ever think about how crazy it is that birds (birds- think about how big their brains aren't) can pile random bits of a twig and fiber together- not only into an actual shape, but into a thing that their babies are safe in, AND something that can still hold its shape after falling out of a tree. And they do all of it with their feet and their mouths. Yeah- I don't know anybody who could do that.

Isn't that incredible that God did that for them? He thought so intently about what birds would need that He packed that much building skill into their little pea sized brains. And every year, no matter how many birds are building their nests- there's enough twigs, stringy/fibery stuff, and worms to go around.

"Fear not, you are worth more than many sparrows" (Luke 12:7) If He takes that good care of the birds, think how much care He takes of  you and me?
