“Take these broken wings and learn to fly.”
**************
When I was walking the other day, I saw a butterfly fluttering around the grass, hovering low. I reached down and she jumped up onto my hand. I lifted her up and saw a broken wing. We communicated a while, (yes, I speak fluent butterfly) and I could empathize with her situation. After our little talk, I put her down safely under a shady tree, hoping she would be safe and perhaps rest, mend and soon be able to fly away.
There was a time when I felt my wings were broken, so I could definitely relate. But, I had great faith and a wonderful family and amazing friends to hold me while my wings mended. THANK YOU!
GOD’S STRONG SAFE HANDS
You just found me there, with my broken wings
And a broken heart, among other things.
Then you picked me up in your strong safe hands
Giving only love, making no demands.
You wiped away the tears
Whenever I would cry
You always held me close
You never questioned why.
You kept me safe from harm
When nights were dark and long
You cared for all my needs
Until my wings were strong.
Now you look at me, with my mended wings
And a joyous heart, among other things.
Then you set me free, with your open hands
Now the choice is mine, there are no demands.
So very scared at first
Much to afraid to try
I asked, “What if I fall?”
You said,”What if you fly?”
