There must be something about eagles.
Right before I left on the Race I was coming home from my last day of work…
I sped over the hill and the action spooked this bird to fly up right in front of my windshield.
It was an eagle.
A bald eagle.
I watched as it spread its wings out and caught the wind just enough to give it some lift. I stopped my car on the side of the road just to watch it soar until it landed in a distant tree.
The Lord was giving me a glimpse of what is to come. He was releasing me to open my wings to a new adventure, the next season, the World Race.
I felt as if in that one encounter with the bald eagle He was letting the page turn in my book. New Things were in store as I spread my wings out to catch the new wind of change.
Fast forward four months…
I was sitting on the beach in Penang, Malaysia when I looked up to see a bald eagle circling overhead. Back and forth, soaring and swooping. An eagle in Malaysia? And I got to see it while sitting on the beach?
I felt it was the Lord speaking again.
My heart is filled with expectancy over what is to come with this month and the coming months.
I feel the Lord is closing a chapter and then letting me walk into a new one.
The coming season is unknown but I feel the Lord is going to lift me to greater heights with Him.
