On Eagles' Wings

Today on the way to church, Boobear and I saw 4 majestic eagles. One was sitting in a field watching us drive by, another soared overhead a mile or so down the down. Considering that our opening hymn was "Eagles Wings" by Michael Joncas, it was a wonderful reminder of the strength that eagles have in their wings.
Psalm 91 also talks about God sheltering us under his wings. What stong, powerful wings eagles have. They are a mighty bird created by a mighty creator. The book of Exodus has God speaking to his people reminding them that he brought them to himself, bearing them up on eagles wings. May God continue to bear us up and shelter us just as he has born and sheltered his people since time began.
