Delightful Doves









"And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove!
for then would I fly away, and be at rest."
Psalm 55:6

The first dove was relaxing and eating
in our birdbath feeder.
The next was keeping warm in winter
while searching for seeds on the ground.
The last was suspicious of my camera. :)

Scripture Scenes...

Here are some photos I took and
added a Scripture to (KJB)...
(I put the title I named each one above it)
You can click on them to view them larger.

KEEPING MY EYES TURNED UPWARD...

"Unto thee lift I up mine eyes,
O thou that dwellest in the heavens."
Psalm 123:1



HOW PRECIOUS ARE THY THOUGHTS...

"How precious also are thy thoughts
unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
If I should count them, they are more in number
than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee."
Psalm 139:17-18



WAITING FOR THE LORD...

"I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait,
and in his word do I wait. My soul waiteth for
the LORD more than they that watch for the morning;
I say, more than they that watch for the morning."
Psalms 130:5-6



MOUNTAINS OF MAJESTY...

"Before the mountains were brought forth,
or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world,
even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God."
Psalms 90:2



WINGS OF A DOVE...

"Oh that I had wings like a dove!
for then would I fly away, and be at rest."
Psalms 55:6



LIFT UP YOUR EYES...

"Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath
created these things, that bringeth ou their host
by number: he calleth the, all by names by the
greatness of his might, for that he is strong in power;
not one faileth."
Isaiah 40:26



The last two are my personal favorites.
I really enjoy being able to get closeups
of birds from our backyard!
The bluejays are hard to get since they
grab their food and dart away.
I caught him just as he picked up a seed!
The dove in 'Wings of a Dove'
seemed like he was posing just for me :)
The cardinal was perched on our fence.
The mountains were taken from our trip
that took us through Virginia.
The ocean is the NC beach we live right by.
And the sun was a spring sun setting on our
way from the store as we drove over a bridge.

things to take pictures of.

Here are a few of my favorite shots
of my backyard feathered friends.

Welcome!

One of my favorite verses is Psalm 8:3-4.
"When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers,
the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;
What is man, that thou art mindful of him?
and the son of man, that thou visitest him?"

I take many pictures of creation and decided to
design this blog specifically to share them on.
I want to encourage others to 'consider His works'.
When we look around us, we can learn more of the Creator
by observing and considering His creation.
What a awesome and almighty God He is,
and that He is 'mindful of us'!

"The more I study nature,
the more I am amazed at the Creator."
--Louis Pasteur
