Those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.
– Isaiah 40:31 (NLT)
SOAR LIKE EAGLES
A poem and essay by ILMA
When you feel vulnerable and weary
It is time to trust God to get victory
Those who have faith in him will find strength
They will walk and they will not faint.
The Lord works best when you are weak
Be sure to run to him and be meek
You will soar high on wings like eagles
You will experience triumph over the devil.
Eagles can climb to up to 3000 m (10,000 ft.) in the air. They can soar for hours using these currents. When cruising, they can fly about 65 km/hr. They can reach speeds of up to 160 km/hr (100 mph) when diving.
The bible speaks of the promise of the Lord to those who trust in him. He will renew their strength and let them soar like eagles. They will not grow weary. They will walk and not faint. This shows God’s faithfulness to his people. He will restore and ensure that those who believe will never be defeated and will come out stronger than before they started. They soar like eagles, the epitome of strength and endurance.
PRAYER
Lord, renew me when I am weak.
REFLECTION
Why do we need to rely on the Lord for strength?
