On Eagle's Wings

Some of my favorite memories from my childhood involved the times I would ride my bike to a nearby river and watch the eagles. My first oil painting, that I painted while in high school, was a painting of an eagle majestically perched on a branch over a lake.

So when I went away to college and I heard the song "On Eagles Wings" for the first time it gave me great comfort.



Since that time, my sons have earned the rank of Eagle Scouts-a high honor.

This song, the college memories and accomplishments of my sons create a mental vision/picture (eagle) of being lifted up through the years, through the challenges to a hope in each new day. At times these and other things have inspired me to reach higher than I thought I could reach and to trust in God.

Here is another video with the same song but as a memorial to children who have gone before us to heaven.



What images/visions/songs/other inspire you or give you hope? If at all possible, take a minute or two today to seek out those things that inspire you.

May your day be filled with blessings!
