This photo was taken by me one winter day when our hawk friend showed up and decided to sit in this big, old maple tree in front of our yard.
He is definitely a local resident, for we see him on occasions. Then again, there are times that we know that he is around, because there is no birds around to be seen or heard. Our little bird friends are weary of our hawk because he looks for little prey.
As he sat there, this day, he appeared to be taking a break and I believe he almost knew that I was trying to get a good photo of him. I've seen him swoop by before, but he is so fast, he catches me off guard without my camera.
We are lovers of animals and birds....it brightens our day when we get a glimpse of our hawk.
We can be like our mighty hawk.........Job 39:26 Doth the hawk fly by thy wisdom, and stretch her wings toward the south?............ the hawk flies by the wisdom of our God and the mere stretching of her wings and the direction that she takes is only because of God's greatness. We can choose to live our lives and take the right path that the Lord wants us to take. We can spread our wings and fly by the Lord's will....or we can live by our flesh and take the path of unrighteousness, which leads to total despair.
Open your hearts to the Lord Jesus Christ and trust in Him and in what He has done on the cross to save us from eternal agony. The choice is yours.
If you choose to trust in Christ and let Him be Lord of your life, you will be given the Holy Spirit to indwell in you and guide you.....to take that path which God has provided for you.
You can start by reading the Lord's Word...the Bible....Psalms and Proverbs are an easier place to start....open you heart and pray to the Lord and He will hear you.....ask Him to lead you to the right Church and the right teachers and believers to help you along your new path.
