Did
you know that an eagle knows when a storm is approaching long before it breaks?
The eagle
will fly to some high spot and wait for the winds to come. When the storm hits,
it sets its wings so that the wind will pick it up and lift it above the storm.
While the storm rages below, the eagle is soaring above it.
The eagle does
not escape the storm. It simply uses the storm to lift it higher. It rises on
the winds that bring the storm.
When
the storms of life come upon us - and all of us will experience them - we can
rise above them by setting our minds and our belief toward God. The storms do
not have to overcome us. We can allow God's power to lift us above them.
God enables us
to ride the winds of the storm that bring sickness, tragedy, failure and
disappointment in our lives. We can soar above the storm.
Remember, it is
not the burdens of life that weigh us down, it is how we handle them.
