Gods Wings

After a forest fire in Yellowstone National Park, forest rangers began their trek up a mountain to assess the infernos damage.

One ranger found a bird literally petrified in ashes, perched statuesquely on the ground at the base of a tree. When he gently struck it, three tiny chicks scurried from under their dead mothers wings.

The loving mother, keenly aware of impending disaster, had carried her off spring to the base of the tree and had gathered them under her wings, instinctively knowing that the toxic smoke would rise.

She could have flown to safety but had refused to abandon her babies.

When the blaze had arrived and the heat had scorched her small body, the mother had remained steadfast. Because she had been willing to die, those under the cover of her wings would live.

Being loved this much should make a difference in your life.

Remember the ones who love you,.. And then be different because of it.

He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge.

Psalm 91:4

This article was in the National Geographic years ago and gives us a better understanding on how God gives us refuge under his wings.

Praise the Lord! For such steadfast Love....
