Isaiah 33:17

There remaineth yet very much land to be possessed.

Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.

Up yonder on the rocky cliff in a rough nest of sticks lies an egg. The eagle’s breast-feathers warm it; the sky bends down and invites it; the abysses of the air beckon it, saying: All our heights and depths are for you; come and occupy them.

And all the peaks and the roomy places up under the rafters of the sky, where the twinkling stars sit sheltered like twittering sparrows, call down to the pent-up little life, “Come up hither!” and the live germ inside hears through the thin walls of its prison, and is coaxed out of its shell, and out of the nest, and off the cliff, and then up and away into the wide ranges of sunlit air, and down into the deep gulfs that gash mountains apart.

I believed not the words, until I came, and mine eyes had seen it; and, behold, the half was not told me.

The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
