Fly like an eagle!!

I have learned A LOT in the last week, like things happen when you least expect it to happen, God's timing is EVERYTHING!! every situation that comes your way you cannot fix, and sometimes when people have a prophetic word you may just wanna listen! Here are somethings God has been showing me me while in this time of waiting on Him.

God is strengthening me, as I wait. “But those who wait on the Lord will find new strength. They will fly high on wings as eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint” (Isaiah 40:31).

The way God strengthens us through our trial is kind of like a eagle in a storm “Did you know that an eagle knows when a storm is approaching long before it breaks? The eagle will fly to 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 is going crazy 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.

So when a storm comes into my life I realize that it might not be a bad thing, God is using this storm to strenghten me, not to overcome me God enables us to ride the winds of the storm that bring sickness, tragedy, failure, and disappointment into our lives. We can soar above the storm. What I am learning right now it is not the burdens of life that weigh us down, it is how we handle them.”

The second thing I am learning is that while I wait on God he blesses me!!

“Yet the LORD longs to be gracious to you; he rises to show you compassion. For the LORD is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for him” (Isaiah 30:18).

What does it mean to be blessed by God while I wait on Him? As I wait on God and His timing, He can accomplish so much in my heart. Often we find new purpose in life, receive answers to prayer, see God work, increase our faith, and most often we see God’s perfect plan fulfilled in our situation. What is hard to swallow is to remember, waiting is not wasted time! So now I am going to sit back and soar in the sky with the eagles and let the storms that come into my ride underneath me to make me stronger!
