Have you ever let the “little things” in your life get you down, made you mad, or take the joy out of your life? If so, then today’s little story is just or you!!
The only bird that dares to peck and irritate an eagle is the raven. It will sit on the eagle’s back and start to continually bite its neck. However, the eagle does not respond, nor does it fight with the raven. It does not spend its time and energy on the raven…it just opens its wings and begins to fly and rise higher and higher into the heavens. The higher the eagle flies, the harder it is for the raven to breathe and soon, the raven falls off due to the lack of oxygen.
Stop wasting your time with the “ravens.” Just take them to your heights and they will fade away.
The enemy will sit behind your back and bite your neck, but those who wait upon the Lord will have new strength; they will lift their wings like eagles. (Isaiah 40:31)
Be strong and Courageous!

Here in our neighborhood it is the crazy mocking birds that bravely chase after the hawks. I have yet to see the hawk get smart enough to fly high but they usually just go find a quieter tree to roost in.

I suppose we all have a bit of the raven in us, but I do not want to be a raven, nevermore.

On the other hand, if I understand the situation correctly–and my birdwatcher partner tells me I do–the ravens do manage to drive the eagles away from their nests, so they may peel away when the air gets too thin, but their chicks don’t get eaten.

Great story. Life is too short to engage the ravens.
