A sign from God relative to our new home for Eagle's Nest Wilderness Ranch? Only time will tell, but I must share the story. This past Tuesday members of our ENWR team decided to hike the perimeter of a property that we've felt that God may be leading us to. We wanted to "pray a circle" around it (an idea promoted by a book that we've all read called "The Circle Maker" by Mark Batterson) and determine if this property has all that we will need to accomplish our goals.
... After hiking for about an hour and a half we heard an eagle screeching and then saw it fly right over our heads. Awesome sight! Then, as we continued to watch in awe, another eagle appeared and joined the first one. Really awesome! When they flew out of sight we resumed our hike. After just a few minutes more of hiking, we heard what sounded like baby eagles making noises overhead so we began to scan the trees for a nest. And, sure enough, we spotted it. We scrambled up the side of mountain to see if we could get a better look and upon gaining some elevation we were able to see two baby eagles sitting in the nest (similar to those pictured below). Incredibly awesome sight!!
I said to the rest of the team....can you believe what we're seeing? We are looking at an Eagle's Nest in the Wilderness (the property is bordered by the Arapaho National Forest) next to a Ranch that we're praying about as a potential home for our children. Coincidence...or God??? I'm not a big believer in coincidences!
Would you please join us in praying for this property? We have heard that it is for sale and it seems so perfectly suited to meet our needs, but it also has a pretty large price tag attached to it. Therefore, we also ask for prayers for the funds that will be needed to move ahead. Thanks so much!
