The Eagle In Jesus

By Dawne Zacharias

This bird is admired for its grandeur,
 its grace in flight,
Its size and magnificent power.
When in flight it stirs the
 soul to true liberty.
He can use his mighty wings 
to carry other eagles to safety.
Turbulence makes him stronger
 he flies higher and faster.
The eagle's keen eyesight gives him
 a sense of approaching danger
to protect himself and his family.
"The Eagle displays the sense of responsibility
 that is a companion to true liberty."
"He takes an active role in providing
 for his family and he teaches his young to fly."
Jesus Christ emulates this and much more
 He came to bring the life, victory, power, and freedom
 to those of us who place our faith in Him.
