The Eagle spreads it's wings
and with glorious grace
floats, effortlessly
on thermal winds.

So, the Lord provides...

and if we but trust,
He provides the very same
Grace
for His beloved children.

Those winds,
that blow through our lives,
The ones we battle with.
or
by our own power,
try to conquer,
and then call it freedom,
that only
keep us in bondage,
are empty lies.

Truth is...

Surrendering
our will and our lives
to Jesus,
accepting His Love.

Spreading our spiritual wings,
we then glide,
in true freedom,
on the Winds of Grace!

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

Ellie, this soars just like the eagle with such grace and beauty. I loved every line. Just today we talked about salvation, the physical saving part, and the joy of salvation, which only come with total surrender to His lordship. This reminded me of that very conversation. Cheryl

Ellie, this is most beautiful.

"Truth is...
Surrendering
our will and our lives
to Jesus,
accepting His Love."

Many people and christians miss this point. The surrender is so very important, and I love this. floria

Ellie,

So, so true.  True freedom is total surender.  I love the comforting thought of floating "on the winds of Grace."  In total trust, total surrender, total submission to GOD, I'm certain that the soul becomes so light that it floats unto GOD's bossom.  GOD bless you and thanks for sharing.  -Bob
