Painted Feathers


 Beauty for the start of your week, dear friends...

 
Thank you Glenn and Cheryl for sharing  :-)
 
Amazing artistry from FeatherLady Studios along with a
hauntingly beautiful story of God's Ever-Protecting Love...
 
 
"He will cover you with His feathers,
And under His wings you will find refuge."
                                                  ~Psalm 91:4
 
God's Wings
 
After a forest fire in Yellowstone National Park, forest rangers began their trek up a mountain to assess the inferno's damage.  One ranger found a bird literally petrified in ashes, perched statuesquely on the ground at the base of a tree.  Somewhat sickened by the eerie sight, he knocked over the bird with a stick.  As it rolled over, three tiny chicks scurried from under their dead mother's wings.  The loving mother, keenly aware of impending disaster, had ushered her offspring to the base of the tree and had gathered them under her wings, instinctively knowing that the toxic smoke would rise.  She could have flown to safety, but had refused to abandon her babies.  Then the blaze had arrived and although the heat scorched her small body, the mother had remained steadfast...
 
She had been willing to die so that those
under the cover of her wings might live.
 
 
 
 

 
 
No matter what firestorms assail you,
May you always find the sheltering wings of Grace
to be your perfect refuge.
 
He is Faithful.  He is Steadfast.
He Loves you more than Life itself ...
 
"The Lord is trustworthy in all He promises
and faithful in all He does."
                             Psalm 145:13
