Eagle

I love to read!!! Karen Kingsbury is one of the many authors I enjoy most. In her book, A Time To Dance, she writes about eagles. I lobe this quote...

  When the female knows a male is interested, she leads him on a chase through the skies, swooping and diving and soaring high above the hills.  When the chase is nearly over, she flies as high as she can and flips over onto her back, free-falling toward the ground.  It is the male's job to place his body over hers and grasp her talons, flapping his wings with all his might to keep her from certain death.  Moments before they hit the ground, the female pulls out of the dive and circles the male. Because he had been willing to stay even unto death, he will have proven himself as a mate. The eagles are joined for life from that point on.

Absolutely amazing analogy of how a Christian marriage should be.
