| 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 avare of the 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, so those
under her wings would live.
"He will cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you will find refuge."
Psalms 91:4 |
