CHICKEN OR AN EAGLE
Chickens are animals that do not fly high or long whereas Eagles fly very high into the sky, before I continue I will like to ask, are you a chicken or an eagle?
The chicken are earthbound , they don't dream of ever flying even though they have the ability to fly to certain limits.
Chickens love to eat dirt and worms, its vision is limited to what it can eat ,they are always looking for dirt to peck on the ground or either fighting each other , separating them , as soon as you leave they continue the fight.They fight until blood starts gushing out at times.
Even with the fact that they feed on dirt, they are happy and comfortable.They don't live the heavenly life , they are always managing things. Chickens are only busy with what they will eat and drink
Some Chickens stay in cages till they are taken out and roasted for food.
These are the pictures of many people who fail to exploit life , they live below God's standard for their lives, God's wish for them is to live above expectations.
The three levels where man can live are :
I.below expectations
II.meeting expectations
III.exceeding expectations
But God's wish is for us to live above expectations.
"A parrot's gift is to talk; an eagle's gift is to fly. I'd rather be an Eagle" by Matshona Dhliwayo ,
Let's learn to fly.
Many people are living like the chicken instead of God's master plan of living living like the eagles.other other hand Eagles are wonderful birds , sharp , swift and highly intelligent.They are swifter than automobile ever made.Eagles have sharp eyes to see afar off , about 5 miles away whiles chicken cannot see beyond its immediate surroundings.
Eagles have foresight , vision , plan etc.
Eagles use the rocks on mountains to sharpen its beak to enable them to pick up preys.They stay in the hot sun to enable their body to ooze out oil to lubricate its features for flight, eagles soar in the rain , thunderstorms because of their waterproof feathers.
Like the Eagles we need to face storms of life ,ride on the storms as Eagles do , before we can get to the stage of living beyond expectations.Eagles also have sharp claws to pick pray they spot from afar, we must be able to sport great opportunities a far and be able to make good use of such opportunities.
"Rise up and adopt an Eagle's mentality. Challenge yourself to leave environments where people have accepted mediocrity. Surround yourself with people who are going places "by Germany Kent. I love this platform, it's an avenue for me to fly.
