Life's Flying Lessons

I learned something I think everyone can be benefit from time to time. I call them Life's flying lessons. Whether they be challenges, diffculities in life, or just having a bad day. I was taught about eagle's today. When a mother is trying to teach their young one's how to fly she pretty much pushes them out of her nest and says see ya! What a scary concept! It's never comforting to be forced to do something you don't feel comfortable doing when you have a goal in mind. Just like the eagle's young ones they are nudged out of the nest, and then they have some crash landings, but they continue to pickup and and go again. They repeat the process until they finally accomplish the flying lesson.
I know once we accomplish our goals we can look back and see how the challenge can help us in the long run. We have to have faith and keep pressing forward never looking back. We have to continue to keep a positive and great attitude. We have to look beyond the promises that God haves in store for us. One verse I continue to ponder on is Romans 8:37, "We are more than conquerors through Christ who strengthens us." In the bible, God talks about eagles and I think we are to ponder on his word! I think God wrote this scripture for a reason. Yesterday afternoon I sat staring at that knucklehead, very nervous to ride it, but I will soon be like the Eagle being pushed out of my nest to accomplish the goal.
