God's Wings
A little something to put things in
perspective...
An article in National Geographic several
years ago provided an interesting picture of
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 aware of
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 those under the cover
of her wings would live.
He will cover you with his feathers, and
under his wings you will find refuge."
(Psalm 91:4)
