Eagle's Wings

"You yourselves have seen what I did to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles wings and brought you to myself."

Exodus 19:4

Have you ever watched an eagle? I mean really observed them. They are so amazing and unique. They're strong. Graceful. Wise. Have you ever watched them fly, soaring above everything surrounding them? Once an eagle has reached a certain altitude it can stop flapping it's wings and simply soar on the wind beneath it. Such a familiar situation to me. I remember a time when I felt as if I had fallen to the bottom of the pit. Life had become so hard to navigate, so tough to manage. It seemed as if I was flapping hard and barely moving. Then I realized that I was trying to do it all in my own strength. So i chose to lean hard on God for everything. That trust in God was the altitude I needed to reach the place where I could soar in Christ. I no longer needed to flap my wings. Christ became the wind lifting me higher. If you're wings are growing tired lean hard on God and soar.

Soaring in Him,
