Eagle's Nest is a support/small group for parents of children with disabilities.

Did you know that an eagle knows when a storm is approaching long before it breaks?

The eagle will fly to some high spot and wait for the winds to come. When the storm hits, it sets its wings so that the wind will pick it up and lift it above the storm. While the storm rages below, the eagle is soaring above it. The eagle does not escape the storm; it simply uses the storm to lift it higher. It rises on the winds that bring the storm.

Remember, it is not the burdens of life that weigh us down; it is how we handle them.

“they will soar on wings like EAGLES, they will run and not be weary; and they will walk and not be faint” Isaiah 40:31 msg
