Do they, like mama, trust papa is on his way? Do they flounder fearfully? Or do they know they're born to puncture the air, and have no worry as they learn to fly? (Or does "no worry" only come on successive falls?)<br /><br />And shouldn't those eaglets reach a point where they only fly and never fall? I sure wish I could get <i>there.</i> But I suppose I might forget my dependence on the Father if I did.<br /><br />Oh how I loathe the pride that requires I keep falling!Anne Lang Bundyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02998809463390846323noreply@blogger.com
