"Eagles in a Storm"

 

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 into 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.
