Give Us Today …
Sometimes we don’t need to add words to the example of someone who just keeps walking in the face of trials and challenges and opportunities. The following is a video that is well worth your next 13 minutes. Then pray the Lord’s prayer with the emphasis that’s added. I don’t think you will remain unmoved!
It’s not hard to soar on eagle’s wings when things are going well. It’s not hard to run without growing weary when the crowd pulls for you and life goes your way. But it is often heroic when you just keep walking when life has dealt you unfair challenges, unwanted difficulties, or unexpected hardships. So just keep walking and just keep asking for God to give you what you need to make it through today!
“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.For or yours is the kingdom and the power
and the glory forever. Amen.’”
What a wonderful lesson teaching us that any thing is possible with Gods help along with determination to just show you can do it.I was so touched I just wanted to hug him and tell him I was so proud as his parents .
thank for sharing this story with us .Phil Blessings Betty

Phil:
Writers Block? – I was reading my e-mail for 05-16-2009, and was moved to play your video. Rare for me, I am at a loss for words, YET your story of D.J. Gregory blew me away.
I WAS going to feature another topic for my first page of Gods Eagle Nest, no more, D.J.’s story and the soar like an Eagle reference changed that.
Thanks Phil, “The walk goes on!”

Dear DJ,
You have been an inspiration. Through God, He made it possible. Your strength and determination indeed amazes me. Thank you to our good God.
You reminds me to soar above our problems. I am encouraged and will not see my problem that big. Will truly surrender everything to Jesus.
God bless you and your family.
