Eagle Commitment

Eagles move from a process of courtship to commitment. The female eagle flies high into the sky, and the male eagle chases her. Suddenly she turns over on her back in midair and sticks her talons up. He moves over her and locks talons with her while they fall toward earth. He is totally committed. He would rather die then let her go. They are saying I love you, and I will never let you go. I am with you weather your rising or falling, through illness or health, through good days or rough ones, through mistakes, through trials, till death do us part. These eagles then mate for life.

Proverbs 30:18-19 The way of the eagle is too wonderful to understand. Are we as Christians willing to lock talons with others? The bible gives us numerous examples of others totally committed, locking talons. The story of Ruth locking talons with Naomi is a good example set for us. David and Jonathon is another great example. God with Noah and the good Samaritan with a stranger are a couple of other great examples of locking on.

But what about the most important pair. what about your commitment, your relationship with Christ?

We need to be asking ourselves:

Are my talons locked on with Christ?

Am I committed to Christ and to others, to hold on no matter what the outcome, no matter what the cost?

Would I be willing to lock on to a friend, or even a stranger weather they are rising or falling?

Would I be willing to die for another by not letting go?

hello mickey sweetie just stop by leaving some love and wishing your happy valentine.

Prayerfully this will find a wing to add feathers too!

Are you or a loved one going through a difficult or rough time? Eagles can sense and know of storms from afar off, even before they can see them. They are not afraid of the storms in life. Eagles don't think survive, but overcome. Eagles fly to the storms to lift themselves to higher places. In Habakkuk 3:16-19. Habakkuks feelings were not controlled by the storms around him, but by the faith in Gods ability to give him strength and to see him through. We need to take our eyes off of our difficulties and look to God. (Zech 4:6) God does not permit storms in our lives for the purpose of defeating us, but for the purpose of building and benefitting us. The storms of trials, tribulations, and adversities, use in life to strengthen our wings. Soar my friend, Soar. Your sister in Christ, Brown Eagle

Gal 5:20 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. John 12:46 Isa. 64:8 2Cor.4:6 Eph. 5:8

Are you one: just not fitting in, real hard on yourself, did you fall back a couple of steps, still have a few rough edges to deal with, your job or place in the Body of Christ you think isn't that important or needed, having to start over many times... only to somehow find strength to pick up and try again, are you spending many nights on your knees in prayer....my friend you are not alone!

The Broken Clay Pot: Brown Eagle

The angels one day decided to go shopping. (stay with me here) A clay pot for Christ would be a nice gift to give. In a store were many shelves of beautiful clay pots. Most were painted in rich colors and had special shapes from such earthly position and fortune. Smooth, bright shades, perfect shapes, no visible flaws. So filled their lives had been. Then, there pushed back on a distant shelf, was myself...a clay pot worn and broken in places. Life had not been easy...cracks in places from many trials, several chips from enduring hardships, colors which faded through seasons of storms, yet there was also surfaces showing through of love and laughter. The angels were viewing each pot and kept moving closer towards me...I was ashamed to be seen...and b4 you knew it...there they were in front of me. I thought they would just take a glance and move on. They all started whispering and smiling...my heart just dropped to the ground in shame. If that wasn't enough...one of the angels picked me up and held me up in the air. I couldn't figure it out...all the cracks, chips, and worn out places...they were all visible there on the shelf. As the angel did this...there was a loud gasp that filled the air....I looked around at the other angels who were staring at me with wide eyes....

Light flooded through the many broken places in my pot. The angel holding me told me that every time I gave my life over to Christ, it became His life, His hardships, and His strulggles. The angel continued explaining to me that each beam of light through this pot was where I had stepped aside and let Christ shine through, until there was more of Him then there was of me. The angels were pleased and knew that Christ would be also with this gift.

Whisper: The Lord wants all of us... He is made strong in our weaknesses, pain, and struggles. (2 Cor. 12:10) His Glory shines through... broken clay pots. Others will see His light, not our brokeness. It is the Lords love that holds and binds the broken pieces together. Your sister in Christ, Brown Eagle

Luke 10:30-37 The Good Samaritan

What might be some birds attitudes and responses in the Parable...The Good Samaritan?
The parrots response probably would have been: laying down and pretending to be wounded also, just to see if it would work for them.
The woodpeckers response would be more then likely looking at his watch and deciding to get to his meeting. "I don't have time to get involved in this, I'm just too busy to waste my time helping. I have my routine to keep up with."
The peacocks would say, "thank goodness it's you and not me. Let someone else help and get dirty."
The canaries would respond probably with let someone else take care of him.
The ostrich would stick his head in the ground, saying, "It's none of my business, I won't get involved."
The night owls would say, "You got yourself there, get your own self out."
The buzzards and crows more then likely would just keep on kicking him while he was down, enjoying his misery..
The chickens response would be one sitting on the fence asking others to move out of the way. "I can't see everything going on."
I think you get my point. The eagles response I will share another time.
God does not look for ability but availability.
Gods living Word is just loaded with guidance, direction, support, and truth! We are able, as His children, to help another when they are placed on our path.
Gods word tells us, we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.(Eph. 2:10), all things are possible, (Matt19.26) His grace is sufficient, (2Cor.12:9) He will direct our steps, (Proverbs 3:6) He will supply all our needs, (Phil4:19) He will carry us, sustain us, rescue us. I'm sure this applies to us helping another. We are more then conquerors. (Romans 8:37) How can we fail or lose by reaching out or helping another? John 13:34,35 to love one another is an action! A couple of reminders for the owls and other birds...Luke 16:19-26, Matthew 25:31-46. Stepping up and reaching out! Two or more...Christ through you! God Bless you! Brown Eagle
