Resemblance

It’s interesting to note that often the young offspring of certain animal species do not resemble their parents. In some cases, the young ones are as large as, if not bigger than their parents.
Bald eagle chicks seem to possess a camouflage plumage so they can blend in with the background during their defenceless, fledgling period.
Very few people noticed these bald eagle chicks up on their perch just a few metres from a busy road.
Eventually they lose their baby plumage and begin to take on the distinctively white head feathers. In the human world, parents are more concerned about the resemblance of the child to themselves. I guess we want our next generation to possess all that is good and positive in our lives. Likewise, our Heavenly Father desires to see His character and nature manifested in our lives.
