LFL friend, Vic Both, recently sent in a new poem that I want to share with you. In his note, Vic said, “While setting up a display – a plain bird, a flower, and a butterfly plague – I realized that without some words it had no biblical context.” Here is the poem:
Sparrows
Matthew 10:29
Small and plain, without a song to sing;
Numerous in number, an uncounted common thing
Made famous in a sermon that our Lord Jesus spoke:
That God’s eye is on the His sparrow and on His common folk

Vic says, “I write from my heart hoping to touch yours so that together we can celebrate both Life and its Creator.”
