Eagles and vultures or here in Alabama it would be Eagles and buzzards . Ever noticed how buzzards soar around an area in a circle ? We all know what they are doing they are flying around looking for their next meal . Eagles are basically the same but they do it in a different way . The buzzards are looking for something that isn't moving or dead . It's too much work for them . They just sit or fly around waiting for something to die or be close to death . The Eagle on the other hand is aggressive. It spots its prey and swoops in for a live snatch with it's talons . The Eagle works it's plan and exercises it with precision . All while the animal is on the move , which is opposite of the buzzard . Those who trust in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.- Isaiah 40:31 . I understand that Eagles will also eat dead animals I am merely trying to show how lazy the buzzard is . As metaphor . The buzzard is like a lazy Christian not walking the walk or talking the talk and allowing anyone to see . Or maybe the buzzard acts like a hearse but the Eagle acts like an expensive sports car . Trust in the Lord and Soar on wings like an eagle .
