Isaiah 40:31
King James Version
31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
Renewed like an eagle. I read an article recently that outlined seven characteristics of an eagle. Eagles have vision. They are fearless. Eagles are tenacious. They are highflyers. Eagles never eat dead meat. They possess vitality. Eagles nurture their young.
Vision is necessary in order to thrive. Daring to believe beyond what can be seen is key. The Bible teaches: "We walk by faith not by sight." 2 Corinthians 5:7 Eagles are fearless. They are not intimidated by the size of their prey. They are confident is their power to overcome obstacles. The eagle perseveres because of its tenacity. Determined, persistent, the eagle.
High flying. Eagles. When the storm comes, they rise above it. Soaring. Flying where the sun is still shining. The eagle desires what is fresh and alive. It is not interested in what is rotten and has no life. Let us surround ourselves with what is true and alive, quick and powerful The Word renews us. we will flourish. The eagle takes care of its young. Nurturing, thinking about others attracts hope and inspires confidence.
Renewed strength. The strength to mount up with wings like an eagle, to run, and not be weary; to walk, and not faint. Lord, please grant renewed strength. Today.
God bless!
in Christ,
