Are you an eagle or a duck?
Do you soar on wings like eagles (Isaiah 40:31)?
Or do you wander around the picnic grounds like a duck looking for scraps?
Are you a lion or a mouse?
Are you strong and fierce for the Lord?
Or do you hide and scurry about, lacking in courage to take a stand?
Are you a deer or a sloth?
Do you scale great heights (Psalm 18:33)?
Or do you go nowhere and do nothing?
Are you a dog or a cat?
Do you follow your Master, happy to do His bidding?
Or are you independent and indifferent?
These are questions you need to ask yourself.
Your answers will reveal how close your relationship is with God.
Do you give your all?
Or do you hold back?

Oh, excellent questions! I fear at times my life has leaned towards the feline persuasion...I am so thankful God is patient and merciful....
Lately I'm an eagle. God has sent me that verse numerous times over the past month to really speak to my heart...so I'll go with it.

Karen, yep it's awesome how God is patient with us.
Wendy, that is so brilliant to be able to say that. Praise God! :)
I love how animals can teach us so much about God. Actually, I kinda want to be a sloth. Because I ended up with a new appreciation for sloths on my blog. ;)
Good questions.....making me think.

Oh I pray I give my all! This has been on my heart lately. I want to give Him my all & completely sold out for Christ!
Great post! Praying I will always give my all...however, I know there are times when I have failed. I am thankful for the opportunities HE has given me to get up and try again.
Blessings, andrea
