ON EAGLESâ€™ WINGS

READ:

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.
-Isaiah 40:31

Isaiah's words about patiently waiting for the Lord anticipate the future with confident hope. From our place of trial, we wait for salvation that is certain to come. Jesus assured His followers, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted" (Matthew 5:4).
Knowing that our destiny is glorious, which is the sure hope of heaven, we're able to pick our pace here on earth. Though weary, we can stretch the wings of our faith and fly! We can walk the path of obedience and not get tired. We can move through routine days and not grow weary. A better world is coming, when our spirits will call us to action and our bodies will fly! This is our hope.
In the meantime, what will be true one day can begin to be true now. We can be steadfast, patient, and joyful in spite of deep weariness; kind and calm, less focussed on our frailty and fatigue; more concerned about others than we are about ourselves; ready to speak a loving word to those who are struggling. We can get ready now for the day our souls will take flight. - David Roper
I am a little weary of my life -
Not Thy Life, blessed Father! Or the blood
Too slowly laves the coral shores of thought,
Or I am weary of weariness and strife.
Open my soul-gates to Thy living flood;
I ask not larger heart-throbs, vigour-fraught,
Thy presence, with strong patience rife. - MacDonald

When you're weary in life's struggles, find your rest in the Lord.

Today God is calling you (3)

I have prayed for you, that your faith will not fail.' Luke 22:32 NASB
