Overcoming

Eagles are over comers. The baby eagle while still in the egg has a sharp little tooth on the end of its beak. It uses this tooth to repeatedly hit the shell until it finally cracks open. They need this experience of the struggle to help them prepare for life. This process, especially as a parent or close friend, at times requires tough love to keep our hands off others during this process. There are times in our lives that we need to peck away to get our break though. We don't grow without it. We need this private place for a breakthrough where we can possibly wrestle, possibly struggle, and definetily work it out with God.
Isaiah 41:10-16. verse 15 .God is turning us into new, sharp, threshing instruments, so we can confront the enemy and to be able to help others.

Tool for thought: Falling down doesn't make you a failure, staying down does.

Revelations 21:7 He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son. Seven times in the book of Revelations there are inheritances for those who overcome, (2:7) the right to eat from the tree of life (2:11) will not be hurt by the second death (2:17) will receive some hidden manna, and also will receive a stone with a new name written on it, known only to him who receives it (2:26 overcomes and does His will) will be given authority over the nations (3:5) will be dressed in white and their name will He never blot out from the book of life, but He will acknowledge their name before His father and His angels. (3:12) He will make a pillar in the temple of my God (3:21) I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne.

Set your goals higher then your ability. Soar my friend Soar!
In Christ and In Love, Brown Eagle

***John 1:12,13 Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God-v13 children born not of natural descent nor of human decision or a husbands will, but born of God.

The Cuckoo Birds lay their eggs in nests built by others, and let the other birds raise their young.

I was found abandoned at 9 months. An unwanted baby. But I know many others have also experienced rejection....weather it be in a spouse walking out, a friend who walked away, not fitting into a group, not accepted for who you are. Whatever the reason....rejection hurts....it leaves an open space in ones heart and very soul. The shadows left... whisper out for a need of love.

God, the very creator of the world and man... experienced rejection and sadly, still does today. (John 1:10,11) Isa. 53:3 He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering.

After Saint Vincents Orphanage... I was placed with a family and adopted at the age of six. I'm not the only one adopted....whisper....I was just blessed to be adopted twice. ***Eph. 5:1 He predestined us to be adopted as His sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with His pleasure and will. John 14:18...I will not leave you as orphans: I will come to you. ***John 1:12,13

He will NEVER leave you nor forsake you. (Heb 13:5) In Him we were chosen, having been predestined... (Eph 1:11) Nothing will be able to separate us from the love of God...(Rom 8:38,39) The Lord will never forget us, we are engraved in the palm of His hands. (Isa 49:15,16)

Say it, claim it, and believe it...I am complete in Christ! I am wanted and loved by the very Creater Himself. Say it again...I am complete in Christ! I am wanted and loved by the very Creater Himself. Say it until you hear it, say it again until you believe it!

Whisper...the Lord is the only One that can fill that open space left from another. Your sister in Christ, Brown Eagle

Whisper...there comes a season...where the scars can rest...within the wings of love....and the soul within settles in peace. Brown Eagle

Are you with shadows of the past...one who has hurt or punished yourself?

Ecc 3:7a...there is a...a time to tear and a time to mend. v. 8b...a time for war and a time for peace.
Whisper...could these possibly apply even within ones self?....
Ecc. 3:11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. Isa 61:1-4 Rom. 8:35-39 Psm. 37:23

An inspiration in writing this, came from a portion of Jenny's poem... a precious friend.

" Heal me with your gift of love,
and let the brightness of that light,
Shine over us...
While the shadows fall behind." Jenny

Whisper......we can no longer see the shadows when we keep our eyes and our heart facing the "Son." (Col 2:17, James 1:17) It is only when we are facing away from the "Son" or turn our back on Christ, we then see shadows. In Christ and all to His glory, Brown Eagle
