Isaiah 40:31 (KJV) 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.
I wanted to start out with this scripture because I believe that it says a lot. Wait, that is a hard thing to do sometimes, but the scripture says if we wait the LORD will renew our strength. Sometimes I find it funny how the Lord shows me things over and over again until I get it. When He starts to deal with me about something I see it being shown to me in so many ways. I have heard so many messages on being an eagle in the last year. I believe that my spirit is like an eagle in so many ways. If you know anything about an eagle, they are remarkable animals. Eagles are bold, strong, courageous, fiercely devoted the eagle has many wonderful characteristics. Eagles come in all shapes and sizes, but you will recognize them chiefly by their attitudes. An eagle is loyal and committed, a reliable mate, and a devoted parent. An eagle has a sharp, keen eyesight and knows how to fly efficiently by riding the thermal currents of the earth. They dwell on the rocks in high places and is confident enough to fly alone and to stand alone in life when necessary and to be strong against the storm, spreading its wings and soaring above the clouds and storms of destruction. That is how I want to be, I want to go above the storm and look down on it. We will have things that we have to go through in life, but the testimony is when we go through them and make it. And we will make it if we stand on the word of God.

Think about the times that we have not stood up for ourselves or let someone say things to us that we didn't want them saying. If you look back on your life I think that we all could see some things that we could have done differently. I know that in my life, sometimes I try to make everyone around me happy and when you do that sometimes you forget to be happy yourself. One thing that I have learned though is that we can not make someone happy all we can do is live our lives trying to do what is right and live happy ourselves and if you are living a happy life ourselves that will be a testimony in itself. I know that we all cannot be eagles it takes all kinds to make up the world, but I know that is what I am going to be from now on. I hope that the people who know me can handle it, because living like an eagle means taking control of my life and my destiny. For me that means doing what the Lord leads me to do not what people expect me to do! My prayer for you today is that you can find the destiny the Lord has for you, because sometimes what the Lord has and what our flesh has is two very different things. I believe that the Lord will show you the way to go if you will pray and seek him in what you are doing in your life. Have a personal relationship with with the Lord make Him your best friend! God Bless!
