The Eagle can see about 20 times further than a chicken.If you stop and think about it ,a chicken is always looking down and just pecking their way thorough life ,While the Eagle on the other hand is always looking ahead and setting their goals.

How many of us are like that?

In life I have found that the more we look ahead the happier we are and the less frustrated we become.

I remember a number of years ago when I had just started buying rental properties ,I received a call from one of my tenants that they heard water running.The tempature was hovering around 20 degreers so I assumed I had a broken pipe ,which I did!!Upon arriving at the property ,I proceeded to crawl under the house to acces the damage.As I ventured further into the abiss I heard hissing noises.As I lay there ,with water dripping down my back,I shone my flashlight around the crawl space in an effort to determine the orgin of the hissing.As I looked more closely I saw numerous sets of little eyes staring back at me from the rat colony.I guess there were 20 - 30 rats watching the excitement.

As I lay there I could have been a chicken and bemoned the fact that I was where I was.Fortunately I chose to be an eagle and looked ahead at how great the future was going to be when I would have a crew that would do the work.

Weather we are facing finiancial,medical or emotional challanges I encourage each of you to think like the Eagle.

In closing I ask that you pray for all those less fortunate than we.

God Bless
