Description
A snowy egret (Egretta thula) takes flight at a marsh near Richardson Bay, California near San Francisco.
Once rare due to its being hunted nearly to extinction for its large plumes, the snowy egret has rebounded in population with conservation efforts. They are found in the coastal southwestern United States and inland near major lakes and rivers, and along the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts from Maine to Florida and to Texas. Northern populations migrate to Central and South America. They have a wingspan of up to four feet.
Like a snowy egret taking flight, I feel the Lord is saying YOUR time for promotion is coming. Before this photo was taken, this egret was hidden among the marsh tributaries, searching for food along the stream. Suddenly, it came into view and with a few beats of its majestic plumage, water dripping from its talons, it took off and flew to the other side of the preserve.
Likewise, God is about to transition you to a new level of purpose. As you continue to be faithful to His calling, spend time in His Word and be in His presence in the secret place of prayer, there will come a "suddenly" when God will equip you with His anointing to step out and soar to new heights in your destiny as you shake off the baggage of yesterday like the egret shaking off water. Be encouraged, keep the faith, stay on course... promotion is coming!
