If I were an eagle, God would become the wind, so He could lift me to soar safely to my destination.
If I were an otter, God would become my fast-moving stream, carrying me along while I dive and swirl, finding joy in how He made me.
If I were a lamb, God would become my grazing pasture to provide for me, nourishing my body day after day.
If I were a flower, God would become my sunshine and rain, warming and sustaining me until I bloomed as He plans.
If I were a tree, God would become my earth, allowing me to sink my roots deeply in Him, holding me tight through even the strongest storms.
But I am not an eagle, nor an otter, nor a lamb, nor a flower, nor a tree. I am a human being. So God became one too - in the person of Jesus Christ, that He might...
Lift me to soar safely to my heavenly destination,
Carry me along to find joy in how He made me,
Provide for me, nourishing my spirit day after day,
Warm and sustain me until I bloom as He plans,
Hold tight to me through even the strongest storms.
No matter what you might face, just know that He came to do the same for you. He is Risen!
Jacob
