Under His Wings

Medium
Drawing - Pastel
Description
Tonight I was compelled to do this pastel painting of a mother bird protecting her babies during a rain storm. I got the idea from a photograph that I posted earlier on my art blog.
After I finished it God brought the words of a familiar old hymn to mind and I placed them underneath the picture. I sensed that God wanted to bless and encourage someone with the comfort of His presence.
No matter what trial you may be going through right now God wants you to know that you are being kept safely under His wings!♥
"Under His wings I am safely abiding;
Though the night deepens and tempests are wild,
Still I can trust Him, I know He will keep me;
He has redeemed me, and I am His child." (Words of a familiar hymn)
