Mrs. Carol Hopson-Above the Storm

There’s one more story I’d like to
share with you in closing. It’s from
the wonderful devotional book entitled
“Streams in the Desert” by L. B.
Cowman.
One day in autumn, while on
the open prairie, I saw an
eagle mortally wounded by a
rifle shot. With his eyes still
gleaming like small circles of
light, he slowly turned his
head, giving one last
searching and longing look
toward the sky. He had often
swept those starry spaces
with his wonderful wings.
The beautiful sky was the
home of his heart. It was the
eagle’s domain. It was there
he had displayed his
splendid strength a thousand times. In those lofty
heights, he had played with the lightning, and
raced the wind. And now, far below his home, the
eagle lay dying. He faced death because…just
once…he forgot and flew too low.
My soul is that eagle. This is not its home. It must
never lose its skyward look, I must keep faith, I must
keep hope, I must keep courage, I must keep Christ.
There is no time for my soul to retreat. Keep your
skyward look, my soul; keep your skyward look!
