This morning I went for a walk with a friend in Carleton’s lower arb. As we walked near the river, an eagle flew out of a tree in front of us and flew across the river to the other side. It was amazing to see it up close…the wing span was large.
I thought of the verse in Isaiah 40:31 “…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.”
It was a majestic sight and a wonderful reminder that as I am hoping in the Lord these days, He will renew my strength.
And…my friend surprised me with a bunch of beautiful radishes.
What a way to start the day.
I was shocked to see the wing span of an eagle one day on my beach at the cabin. When he took off, because I was so close, I swear he had a wing span of at least five feet. They don’t look that large soaring in the sky so it really left me in awe seeing him up close.
I agree. I saw the wing span up close…so majestic and powerful.
That’s a great shot of the eagle, Valerie, and a great pairing with that Scripture.
And the radish picture, vibrantly beautiful. Enjoy!
Thanks Audrey.
It was delightful to see the eagle so close.
And the red of the radishes was a vibrant red! They were delicious too!
