THIS curious little bird is a Tailor Warbler, and lives in India.
It is a tiny creature, not much larger than a humming-bird, glittering with blue, purple, green and gold, not over three inches in length, and weighing about three ounces.
You have never seen the “Tailor Bird,” nor have I, but there is one bird I am going to speak about, and see if you can guess his name. Just when the sun is setting he comes into my garden to sing his evening song.
No doubt every child knows Robin Redbreast, and not one of all the birds is a greater favorite.
His air of simple trust wins our admiration. Who does not like to be trusted? I am sure you do; nothing pleases you more than when father or mother trusts you to do something which perhaps you have never done before.
And don’t you think the Lord Jesus likes to be trusted? Yes, indeed, and has He not asked you to put your trust in Him for the salvation of your precious soul, and then to trust Him for all your needs?
