THE SHADOW OF HIS WINGS!

Isaiah 34:15​ –  Devotional

Isaiah 34:15

“The owl will nest there and lay eggs, she will hatch them, and care for her young under the shadow of her wings; there also the falcons will gather, each with its mate.”

From time to time I have watched birds. Each type has its own way of caring for its young. Some types seem to pay little attention to the nest. Left on their own most varieties thrive, but with encroaching human habitat some become endangered.

I find it interesting and disturbing that many people show more concern about the welfare of the feathered community than the needy people. There is a world of hurting people near us who are like hatchlings and need the care of someone who will be there for them. It is easy to become indifferent to the needs around us.

I remember when I was a Juvenile Probation officer being called by the local police to pick up a 15 year old girl they had just arrested and take her home. My wife, Joyce and I picked her up and as we drove her home I mentioned that her dad would no doubt discipline her severely for her behavior. She stunned us with this statement: “My dad doesn’t love me enough to discipline me!” WOW!

Sometimes God brings His judgment upon those who violate His commands. Does that mean that He does not love us? Not on your life! As a matter of fact it is proof that He loves us enough to discipline us under the shadow of His wings!

Blessings dear hearts walk with God today and become a blessing!
