While cleaning out the chicken coop to get it ready for spiring's chicks, i discovered this little birds nest in one of the little cubbies...I wish i would've taken more pictures from start to finish because when I first saw it, it was a nest full of tiny little eggs....every time we went into the coop we would check on our little bird family until one day the eggs were tiny little baby birds with transparent eyelids and bare skin....after a while I saw a nest full of grown birds (which is the picture) I want sure if these were the babies or other birds that sought this nest for refuge from the massive rains we were getting, but in any case it was great to be able to show my little girl the cycle of life...from egg to baby to adult bird....God's design is so amazing, and it's in nature that you see the fullness of His creation. although His purpose for birds is much different than His purpose for people, the whole experience brings these scriptures to mind..." Before I formed you in the womb I knew you;
Before you were born I sanctified you..." Jeremiah 1:5
For You formed my inward parts;
You covered me in my mother’s womb.
I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made..."Psalm 139:13,14

He makes us and grows us in our mother's wombs... just like the eggs...until one day....we become part of this outside world, Born to fullfill God's purpose to glorify Him and expand His kingdom of heaven....Oh what LoVe!!
