How did we get here? My first plane trip was across the Atlantic Ocean when I was seven years old. I must have fallen asleep on the plane. When I awakened, we loaded up in an old car and drove up a cobblestone street to our third-floor apartment. How did we get here?
In the wilderness, looking up at the mountain of God, the Israelites might have asked that question. How did we get here? God answered, "On eagle's wings."
Looking back at our own journeys in life, we may reflect on the events that brought us where we are. We and others made decisions which led to moves and different destinations. But if we could see it all from God's view: Eagle's wings brought us here.
After we adopted our daughter I asked her, "How did you get here?" With fire in her eyes she said, "God brought me here." Me, too. So I am going to go with him!
