Summary

You don't have to be a dedicated birdwatcher to gain life-changing truths from Under His Wings. This devotional collection is drawn from the world of birds-the same creatures that won't fall to the ground without God's notice. Each selection describes birds in their natural habitats, and makes a spiritual point for humans, who, according to Luke 12, are worth more than "many sparrows." After each devotional are quotes and verses to consider, followed by a "For the Birds" tip- ideas on feeding and caring for birds nearby. Uses Scripture from the NIV, NKJV, Amplified, and Living Bible.
