"Under his wings shalt thou trust"

GRACE HILDA LUGG

IN the Bible, in some instances, the word "wings" conveys the sense of protection, as in the ninety-first Psalm, "He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust." In other cases, it takes on the meaning of support, as in God's message to the people through Moses, "Ye have seen ... how I bare you on eagles' wings, and brought you unto myself."

Mary Baker Eddy, our beloved Leader, has given us the name of Father-Mother for God, and this name connotes protection and support.
