Description
An Anna’s hummingbird (Calypte anna) visits the front yard during the California COVID-19 shelter-in-place, its tiny landing gear down as it forages for insects as protein to supplement its high-nectar diet.
Had I been in a rush ~ I would have missed this gem of a moment.
The Creator exhorts the body of Christ and all of society to slo-o-o-ow down ~ to place our complete trust in the Lord, the Giver of life itself, to meet our needs.
Yeshua Jesus teaches us in Matthew 6:25-26 that worry and anxiety are counterproductive ~ with zero return on investment.
God calls us to put Him first and watch our loving Heavenly Father work miracles in our lives.
“So I say to you, do not worry about your life—what you will eat or drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food and the body more than clothing?
“Look at the birds of the air. They do not sow or reap or gather into barns; yet your Father in heaven feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?”
~ Matthew 6:25-26 (TLV)

Artwork Notes ::
Embedded in the top right-hand corner is the Hebrew acronym for "B'ezras Hashem” [ב ס " ד] meaning "with God's help". It is a reminder to me as an artist and photographer of my dependence on the Almighty, the Originator of all creativity. This is a similar acknowledgement used by great artists like Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel who signed their work with the Latin phrase, "Soli Deo gloria" which means, "Glory to God alone".
