Eagle it is.

Today I got a call from a good brother of mine. He reminded me, “RJ, you need to pray about this matter.”

I was a little disturbed these last few days, as I am not sure what I need to do. I guess when it comes to relationships or commitment, I am not good at this.

Let me share you all my story. I have assumed I will be single, and I didn’t have to worry about getting a partner for myself. I believe I am afraid of commitment. I had that wish before. Things didn’t work out the way I wanted. So, I let go of the feeling. I told God, if it’s meant to be, let it be.

With time, I let go of the desire and surrendered to the Lord. At every family event or gathering, everyone will ask me.”RJ, when are you settling down?”Back in my mind, there would be so many questions. I am not sure how to tell them, I don’t see myself with anyone. There are a lot of insecurities within me, I guess.”

I was writing this note. The image of an eagle came to my mind. I believe the Holy Spirit is moving me to write on this. Eagles in the Bible ( Hebrew : nesher) symbolize God’s power and freedom. They also show His protective care over His people. They often represent strength and renewal.

I was moved to write on three main key points on Eagles.

Eagles do not flock together.
There is something set apart about them. Unlike other birds, eagles do not move in crowds. They rise above the ordinary, often flying higher than the rainclouds, choosing altitudes that others cannot reach. Eagles are created with a distinct purpose—they are not easily swayed by what happens around them, but remain focused on their mission. This truth has been stirring something deep within me. Many years ago, my encounter with the Lord transformed me from the inside out. Yet, transformation is not a moment—it is a journey. There were seasons of growth, refining, and becoming. And deep in my heart, I know there is still so much more to be done for the Kingdom. Somewhere along the way, distractions crept in, and fear held me back from taking the next step. I realized I don’t move through life the way others do—and for a long time, I questioned why. I remember sitting in my home church, quietly asking, “Abba, why can’t I just be like the others? Why can’t I live a ‘normal’ life—get married, have children, have a family, and a husband who takes care of me?”

Instead, my life seemed to be filled with everything else—calling, responsibility, service—while the idea of building a family of my own felt distant or unclear. Today, the Holy Spirit gently reminded me: I am an eagle. That is why I don’t flock together. That is why I don’t blend in.

Perhaps God has plans that I do not yet fully understand. And that’s okay. Faith is not about having all the answers—it is about trusting the One who does. I am learning, still learning, to walk this journey of faith with surrender, courage, and obedience—one step at a time.

Eagles are known for their boldness and courage.
In this season, the Holy Spirit is reminding me to be courageous—to stretch beyond my familiar limits. The Lord is calling me not to settle for the status quo, but to rise higher and become more than I ever believed I was capable of.

Just yesterday, I was in a training session that left me completely drained late at night, and yet I had to report to work early the next morning. In that moment, I realised I am already operating beyond my usual strength. But to move further in life, I know I must be willing to push even more.

I have made a firm decision: this year is my year of giant leaps. It is a year to step out of comfort, to make bold and sometimes uncomfortable decisions, and to trust God beyond what feels safe. I sense deeply that this is the season where important decisions must be made—decisions that will shape the next chapter of my life.Like the eagle, I choose to rise—strengthened not by my own power, but by the grace of God that carries me higher.Eagle people are seen as visionaries, those who are seekers and who are willing to push the limits of self-discovery and personal freedom. The eagle person is a born leader.

Isaiah 40:31 (NIV)

”But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.They will soar on wings like eagles;they will run and not grow weary,they will walk and not be faint.”

As I paused to reflect on what I should write for the third point about an eagle, the Holy Spirit gently whispered within me, “I will bring you an eagle as Your partner.” I was taken aback for a moment, unsure whether this was my own imagination or something deeper. I sat with the thought quietly, allowing my heart to settle. Then, in that stillness, the Holy Spirit gently prompted me again—not to analyse, not to question prematurely, but simply to continue writing the third point. In that moment, I realised that some revelations are not meant to be fully understood immediately, but entrusted to God and unfolded in His time.

Eagles intentionally care for their young.

As I reflected on this, I realised that despite being far larger and stronger than most birds, eagles possess an extraordinary capacity for care. Their strength does not make them distant or harsh; instead, it becomes a source of covering and protection. As I was writing then, I realised my future partner would have characteristics of an eagle.”Interesting, huh, how the Lord unfolds his revelations in one single note.” An eagle’s power is expressed not through dominance, but through presence—hovering, guarding, and providing safety for its young. This reminds me that true strength is revealed in how one nurtures, protects, and creates a secure space for growth.

Deuteronomy 32:11 (NIV)”Like an eagle that stirs up its nest and hovers over its young,that spreads its wings to catch them and carries them aloft…..”

Prayer for today: ” Abba, thank you for the revelations that you have given me through this note today.I pray for all my readers who are at different seasons in life,that they may see the eagle in them to soar higher than their usual limits because You are the Lord of their life. And thank you Lord for bringing me a husband and family that is right for me because we are called to do great things for your Kingdom.Thank you Lord for bringing me a husband that will fly with me or probably stand strong with me when I am learning to soar. Amen.
