On Eagle's Wings

I love Exodus 19.4! How beautifully God expresses his care and concern for his people. Remember what I did to the Egyptians, he says. Remember how I protected you from all of the might and power of Pharaoh, and you did not have to lift a finger. When I protected you, it was as if I bore you on eagle's wings, and brought you to myself.

One could scarcely find a more tender example of God's love in all of the Scriptures!
