FAMILY DEVOTIONS: The birds of the air


Take a walk together outside and listen for the sounds you can hear. See if you can find the sound of the baby hatchlings. When mom or dad flies back to the nest with food, the sound of excited chicks is clear and obvious. You may find them in your backyard or along one of Hanover’s many trails. (Check out: http://www.hanover-ma.gov/greenway-map.shtml ) This past Sunday’s Scripture in church reminded us: Matthew 6:26 - 28 (NRSV) 26Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27And can any of you by worrying add a single hour to your span of life? This is a good time to talk about worries and letting go of them so we can learn to trust God to take care of us.
