I was driving back to Duvall Opportunity program yesterday to pick up Jon when a large flock of turkeys began crossing the road in front of me. As I slammed on my brakes, I very loudly reacted, “You dumb birds! You could fly over the road instead of endangering your life and mine by walking across it. Why walk when you can fly?!”

Immediately Isaiah 40:31 came to me, They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength, they will mount up with wings like eagles…and then the thought, ‘Yes, Diane why walk when you can fly? You do it too you know.’

OK, Lord I get it! I need to wait on You to get the strength I need to soar over all the hard and dangerous places along life’s road. Thanks for the reminder. But I really don’t appreciate being called a turkey!! Just sayin’…
