I’m An EAGLE!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Pastor told me a powerful story that I wanted to share. It is about a baby eagle that got hurt and found himself in a chicken coup. Well the chickens found the baby eagle and took great care of him. They nursed him back to health and treated him as if he was one of their own little chicks. As he grew older, he assumed he was just like his feathered friends. He went about the farm pecking seeds and chicken poop just like all the other chickens. Then one day as he was pecking along, he looked up in the sky and saw a flock of eagles passing over. He was inspired by the eagles. He began to examine himself, and soon realized that he was different from the chickens. He decided at that moment that he wanted to try to fly. As he took a running start, he spread his wings and soared into the sky. HE COULD FLY!!!! He swooped back down to the chicken coup and thanked all the chickens for taking such great care of him and told that he would never forget them, but it was time for him to be what he was meant to be. An eagle.

This story is important for people that have felt like there was something different about themselves. Something that made them exceptional. They may have been surounded by a group of “chickens” which in turn made them have a chicken mentality. (Bird without flight) But I will challenge those exceptional people to first examine themselves thoroughly. Then make a change for their lives accordingly. If you feel that you are different, then you probably are. I say take a running start, and spread those wings. If you fall, try again. Believe in your ability to fly. You can do ALL things through Christ that strengthens you!!
