You Can Be Strong Always

Dr. Peale tells of an eagle that was shot and injured in Florida. It fluttered to the ground and sat by a highway. God was watching over this eagle because an expert in Florida wildlife passed by and took the eagle and cared for it. One day it will be let go to soar again. Dr. Peale says we have eagles built into us and we suffer through difficulties and disappointments. Then the Lord speaks to us saying, “They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles.” When we face what we think may be facing the worst thing that could ever happen to us we should say to ourselves, “How can I take this worse thing that’s happening to me and make it the best thing that’s ever happened to me.”
