A little something to put things in perspective...
An article in National Geographic several years ago
provided an interesting picture of God's wings. After
a forest fire in Yellowstone National Park, forest rangers
began their trek up a mountain to assess the inferno's
damage. One ranger found a bird literally petrified in
ashes, perched statuesquely on the ground at the
base of a tree.
Somewhat sickened by the eerie sight, he knocked
over the bird with a stick. When he gently struck it,
three tiny chicks scurried from under their dead
mother's wings.
The loving mother, keenly aware of impending disaster,
had carried her offspring to the base of the tree and had
gathered them under her wings, instinctively knowing
that the toxic smoke would rise. She could have flown
to safety but had refused to abandon her babies. Then
the blaze had arrived and the heat had scorched her
small body, the mother had remained steadfast.
Because she had been willing to die, those under
the cover of her wings would live.
Being loved this much should make a difference in
your life. Remember the One who loves you, and
then be different because of it
My friend send this to me...thght of sharing it with everyone
