Eagles Flight

 


Psalm 24:1

The earth is the Lord's, and the fullness thereof;
the world and they that dwell therein.






Eagles Flight


Contained in earthen vessels,

these spirits that should soar

above the earth as eagles-

whose flight my heart adores.


Transparent thoughts do take me,

along on eagle's flight,

to see the mighty workings

of God on plains of light.


With flesh and blood unable

to reach the mountain top,

my spirit reaches onward 

toward height beyond the top.


For  no bounds knows my spirit,

ev'n though now it's contained

in an earthen vessel fitted,

while this journey yet remains.

2 Corinthians 4:7

But we have this treasure in earthen vessels,
that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.

"Went Missing"...ahg!





Psalm 24:1

The earth is the Lord's, and the fullness thereof;
the world and they that dwell therein.




I was checking to see if my  blog was still here.  I haven't decided whether I should keep it or not. Oh well, since it's still here...I'm a bit surprised because when I checked it the last time after a period of non-use, it was nowhere to be seen-it was missing from its usual place.  I'm still not certain how I found it. 

Which reminds me of  the term, "went missing".  I guess because this blog was missing from it's regular spot. But was it missing by it own choice or  was it taken down by someone or some thing? All I knew was that it was gone. To put it simply, my blog site was missing. I don't believe it, or anything or anybody ever decides on purpose to :"go missing" so it would be said in reporting the situation that it or the person, "went missing". I find that term aggravating, mostly because being missing it not usually someone's choice.

But, in all honesty, I'm just testing the water today to see if this blog could be revived, or, if I should just  let it "go missing".

But we have this treasure in earthen vessels,
