Environmentalists are saying a great deal about eagles
today. They want them preserved as an endangered species.
Christians can learn much from what the Bible says about
eagles.
“He encircled him. He instructed him. He kept him as the
apple of His eye. As an eagle stirs up its nest, hovers over
its young, spreading out its wings, taking them tip, carrying
them on its wings. So the Lord alone led him....” (Deut.
32:10-12).
“You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I
bore you on eagle’s wings and brought you to myself.” (Ex.
19:4)
But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their
strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles....”
(Isa. 40:31)
The eagle is one of the largest and most powerful birds in
the world. Some eagles weigh as much as twelve or thir-
teen pounds and have a wing-span of about seven feet.
The nests of eagles are called eyres (air-uz), They are
built mainly of sticks and are often lined with fresh green
leaves while they are being used. Once a year, the female
lays one or two eggs, and they are carefully tended, some-
times even by the male eagle, until they hatch in about forty
days. Both parents then guard the nest and take food to the

young.
At about eleven or twelve weeks, a curious thing hap-
pens. If the eaglets have not ventured forth on their own,
the parent eagle “stirs” or rocks the nest, tipping the eaglets
out! The young eaglets flap about in panic, still novices at
this flying business. The parent eagle hovers watchfully,
waiting for the critical moment. With wings spread wide,
the eagle then swoops down underneath those babies and
delivers them back to the security of the eyrie.
Ours is a God of powerful gentleness. Ours is a God
whose timing is perfect. Like the parent eagle, he is sensi-
• tive to our needs. He knows when the nest has become too
comfortable and needs a little stirring. He, too, watches
carefully, and, as with spread wings, catches us up, bring-
ing us to himself. But he wants us to learn from our flut-
tering and flopping. He wants us to leave behind our panic
and to learn to wait on Him. Then, with our eyes on our
parent eagle, we will begin to know what it means to soar
on eagle’s wings!
