The Day I Grew Wings

Journey of a Soul with a Destiny

By: Rebecca McLendon

Narrated by: Leigh Townes

It all began when we decided to get an airplane. I looked forward to riding with my husband over the countryside and enjoying the scenery. But one day he dropped the bomb. He told me I would need to learn to fly the plane, because, should something happen to him up there, I would have to put it on the ground. I began waking up at night silently screaming because I felt I was flying out of control up there with no way of getting the plane down. We ordered the Ground School materials, and thus the journey began. I had overcome cancer. I could do this, too. My new song became, "I believe I can fly". As instruction continued, and the hours added up, I suddenly realized I was a pilot.
