"The mother eagle teaches her little ones
to fly by making their nest
so uncomfortable
that they are forced to
leave it
and commit themsleves
to the unknown world of air outside.
And just so does our God to us.
He stirs up
our comfortable nests,
and pushes us over the edge of them,
and we are forced to
use our wings to save ourselves
from fatal falling.
Read your trials in this light,
and see if you cannot begin
to get a glimpse of their meaning.
Your wings are being developed."

~ Hannah Whitall Smith

Thank You, God, 
that you allow
us to be kicked out of the nest.
But through Your Holy Spirit 
which resides within each of us,
we can soar above our circumstances
far above what we could have
on our own.
Amen.
