~~You may wonder why I use the handle Eagle1. I took it from Isaiah 40:31 "They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as Eagles...." This verse has been such an inspiration to me to excel in life by yielding my life to Him so that His strength might become my strength and cause me to soar.



THE STRENGTH OF MY FRIEND

"But those who wait on the Lord
shall renew their strength; they shall mount up
with wings like eagles…." Isaiah 40:31


I saw an Eagle
Soaring above the land,
Looking so free
Compared to a man.

His strong wings were spread;
as the gray clouds grew,
In stormy wind
Without fear he flew.

My friend was the eagle
Who soared without fear,
Who kept his faith
Through struggles and tears.

The strength of my friend
Came from within
Waiting on God
Instead of on men.

~I want to thank "Serenade" who has been such an inspiration
to me as well as a great friend. My appreciation for her grows
with each passing day. Without her there would be no Eagles Nest.~
