Hymns With Birds and Creation – We Sing… Verse 3
We Sing the Mighty Power of God – Verse 3
There’s not a plant or flower below but makes your glories known,
and clouds arise and tempests blow by order from your throne;
while all that borrows life from you is ever in your care,
and everywhere that we can be, you, God, are present there.
By Isaac Watts
God’s Recipe for the Bar-tailed Godwit
God’s Recipe for the Bar-tailed Godwit
“Doth the hawk [Bar-tailed Godwit] fly by thy wisdom, and stretch her wings toward the south?” (Job 39:26 KJV)
The Bar-tailed Godwit was tracked by a tiny transmitter they attached to her. She flew “nonstop for 7,257 miles (11,679 km) from western Alaska to New Zealand.”
“What’s more, the bird probably didn’t even glide. Bar-tailed godwits use forward flapping for flight and “seldom” glide, according to Robert Gill, Jr., lead author of the study.”
“As for the humble godwit, its incredible journey and endurance is a fantastic testimony to the Creator’s design in the animal kingdom.”
“This is the LORD’S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.” (Psalms 118:23 KJV)
