Colossians 3:23

I enjoy watching the birds around the birdfeeders. These are so industrious! Colossians 3:23 says, “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as though you were working for the Lord and not for people.” For sure, those industrious feathered friends aren’t giving me a thought! Still, I am reminded of the musical, The Music Man.

Pick a little, talk a little, pick a little, talk a little
Cheep cheep cheep, talk a lot, pick a little more
Pick a little, talk a little, pick a little, talk a little
Cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep
