The Eagle Has Landed

The other day we came home to a message from a neighbor... The message was, "Hi! We were driving by your house and noticed an eagle sitting on top of your roof! Just wanted you to know and thought you would want to take a look if you're home."
Well, we weren't home and were sad to have missed it.
Then a few days later we were driving home and there were 2 HUGE eagles circling our house. They looked so magnificent and glorious. I thought about the verses that mentioned eagles and claimed the truths,
"but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint." Is 40:31
AND
Psalm 103:1-5
"Praise the Lord, O my soul;
all my inmost being, praise his holy name.
Praise the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits-
who forgives all your sins
and heals all your diseases,
who redeems your life from the pit
and crowns you with love and compassion,
who satifies your desires with good things
so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's."
This week we're continuing our study on the Names of God. We're on Yahweh Rophe- The God who Heals. How perfect how He pulls all of this together by showing us the Eagle and the verses about healing in the time that we've moved into learning about God our Healer. AMAZING! ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I don't believe in coincidences, so I stand and marvel.
