‘soaring like an Eagle.’by George Wachuri is a delighted uplifting book.
I learnt,the way eagles soar at great heights teaches us an important lesson about faith. It shows us that we should let go of our fears and trust in something bigger than ourselves. Just like eagles can rise above stormy winds, when we have faith, we also can overcome any challenge or obstacle that comes on way.
Keep raising.

Be willing to take risks. The eagle is not afraid to take risks. It knows that in order to soar high, it needs to venture out into the unknown. In the same way, you need to be willing to take risks in order to achieve your goals. Don’t be afraid to step outside of your comfort zone and try new things. The more risks you take, the more likely you are to succeed.
