Eagle
Did you know that an eagle knows when a storm is approaching long before it breaks?
The eagle will fly to some high spot and wait for the winds to come.
When the storm hits, it sets its wings so that the wind will pick it up and lift it above the storm. While the storm rages below, the eagle is soaring above it. .
The eagle does not escape the storm.
It simply uses the storm to lift it higher. It rises on the winds that bring the storm. When the storms of life come upon us - and all of us will experience them - we can rise above them by setting our minds and our belief toward God.
The storms do not have to overcome us.
We can allow God's power to lift us above them.
God enables us to ride the winds of the storm that bring sickness, tragedy, failure and disappointment in our lives. We can soar above the storm. Remember, it is not the burdens of life that weigh us down; it is how we handle them.
This is very good article, isn't it?
"We can rise above the storm by setting our mind and belief toward God."關於老 鷹: 高遠的洞察力是鳥類之 王!
曾在大前研一的書，看到一則「老鷹的故事」。
鷹活了四十年到了中年時，它的生命必須有個決斷。
中年的老鷹因它的喙太長了，使得它不能吃到食物，羽毛厚重得使它不能再展翅翱翔於天空，爪子的指甲太長了，使它不再能俐落的攫取獵物。
它的生命必須有個決斷。一是就此默默等待終了，或是忍受極度的痛楚奮力重生?
有些老鷹的選擇是費盡全力飛到一個懸崖邊，找好一個巢穴，先用自己的喙猛力撞擊峭壁，忍痛把喙磨掉，直到長出新的喙來。
然後再用喙拔掉自己的長指甲，使爪子重新長出新的；接著再用新指甲忍痛拔掉自己老舊多餘的羽毛，使新羽毛重新長出，而能有新翅膀重新展翅。
經歷了五個月痛楚撕裂的歷練和新生，又可以翱翔於藍天三十年。鷹的例子，它的生命歷程，極像我的生命歷程。
我也以老鷹的故事勉勵自己，離開熟悉了二、三十年的舊生活，雖到中 年 仍要重生。
重生的前題還要忍痛捨棄!
