~Faithfully guarding the newly-hatched bluebirds~
1 Timothy 6:20-21:
And oh, my dear Timothy, guard the treasure you were given!
Guard it with your life.
Avoid the talk-show religion and the practiced confusion of the so-called experts. People caught up in a lot of talk can miss the whole point of faith.
Overwhelming grace keep you!
2 Timothy 1:13-14:
So keep at your work, this faith and love rooted in Christ,
exactly as I set it out for you.
It's as sound as the day you first heard it from me.
Guard this precious thing placed in your custody by the Holy Spirit who works in us.
(The Message - emphasis mine)
So much to guard . . .
So much at stake . . .
So many watching our lives . . .
So much behind us . . .
So much to gain . .
So good to know He is guarding and guiding!!

They are such pretty birds. We have some in our yard this year, but we don't know where the nest is.
Bluebirds seem like such peaceful birds. I liked the scriptures you chose in that translation.
What a wonderful picture of our flog!! And just as pretty bluebird picture.
We have a few bluebirds but they are very elusive to me. I've yet to photograph one but I need a longer lens and some time where I can sit and wait for them!
I really like that last sentence, "So good to know that he is guarding and guiding." That makes me feel very safe. Lovely bluebird picture. Hope you have a nice weekend! :)
What a blessing those words are.
How did you capture this wonderful image? Thanks for posting.
Such a beautiful bird and you are so right..I try and avoid the so called experts and talk..It's just man's point of view..We answer to a higher power..Blessings to you..Susie
Comforting verses and a lovely photo, as always. Enjoy the weekend.
What an excellent photo and I love ho you used it to illustrate the scripture...
A great picture! So thankful for His grace that keeps us.
Wonderful post! Happy weekend to you, too!
Amen!! This is beautiful. I love the picture and even more the image you have created to go with it
I've never seen baby bluebirds. God's creation is amazing. Great encouragement to think about God guarding me!
You are so right we must diligently guard our hearts against evil and clutter.
Thank you for you words of inspiration.
Always love to see these photos Glenda. Blessings.
Bluebirds are beautiful aren't they? I also love the picture of the flag. Have not seen that translation of scripture before, I like it. Thank you for the lovely words on my family and grands. Forgive a "grammie" for bragging a bit over the top. Blessings.
