Never Seen Himself
Think of an eagle chick. He's climbed out of the nest. His mom wants him to fly. She wants him to step off a thousandfoot cliff. It makes sense that he's not too excited about this. He's never seen himself in a mirror. He doesn't know that God has given him wings. He has unseen muscles and perfectly positioned feathers. God has given him the ability to fly. All he has to do it take a step of faith off the high cliff to experience the purpose for which God has created him. God has given us everything we need to carry out His will. He has made us as eagles. So, don't be a chicken. Take courage. As we take that first step off that cliff to reach out to the lost, ... we will find that we "mount up with wings as eagles." There goes another minute. Gone forever. Go share your faith while you still have time.
