THE TRUTH~
the young,
the middle aged,
& the old
all grow tired and weary.
THE TRUTH~
the young, the middle aged & the old
all stumble and fall
THE TRUTH~
putting one's HOPE in the nouns of life~
people, places & things~
will not renew your strength.
You will run away & grow weary,
hopelessly crawling & be faint.
THE TRUTH IS THE TRUTH
“Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;
but those who HOPE in the LORD will renew their strength.
They will SOAR on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be fint.”
(Isaiah 40:30-31)
THE TRUTH~
SOAR ABOVE!
Just look at the eaglet.
A precious little eaglet sits in her nest,
all comfy and cozy, having all her needs tended to.
But then the mommy eagle begins taking out the comfy cozy padding in the nest,
piece by piece.
The nest begins to become uncomfortable.
The little eaglet is bewildered,
and then becomes terrified, as now her mommy has brought her to the edge of the nest.
Her mommy is getting ready to kick her out.
“What”, gasps the eaglet. “You are going to do what?
There is a pretty steep drop from this nest to the ground?”
The mommy responds,
reminding her little eaglet that she was given wings to fly.
“Where’s DADDY? I have to talk to DAD about this.” cries the eaglet.
“Look up”, responds her mommy.
And up in the beautiful blue sky
the eaglet sees the wingspan of her DADDY spread across the sky as he hovers over the nest.
Then at that moment the mommy eagle pushes her eaglet out of the nest
and immediately the eaglet’s wings open wide as she tries to fly.
Flapping away,
the eaglet’s eyes are peeled on her DADDY
who is SOARING above with HIS eyes peeled on HIS daughter,
ready to catch her if she falls.
The mommy has tears in her eyes
as her job is complete,
but the
FATHER'S job has just begun.
HE WILL never leave,
HE WILL ALWAYS be SOARING above
and that is where the eaglet has placed her HOPE
GOD gave us wings.
GOD also knows that life will clip our wings,
yet we are still able to SOAR to greater heights,
because
HE is the ONE who renews our strength.
Our HOPE is IN HIM
because~
“Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;
but those who HOPE in the LORD will renew their strength.
They will SOAR on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint” (Isaiah 40:30-31)
Therefore,
fix your eyes on the ONE who gave you wings
and whose eyes are fixed on you~
“You see, an eaglet cannot fall faster than her FATHER can fly" (de Guia).
Because you were created to
"SOAR"
