ON THE WINGS OF EAGLES

IT SEEMS AS IF I HAVE WAITED FOREVER

TO FIND THAT OPEN DOOR.

I'VE SEARCHED FAR AND WIDE

AND KNOCKED ON SO MANY LOCKED DOORS

MY HANDS ARE SCARRED, BLEEDING AND SORE.

BUT, SUDDENLY,

THERE IT STANDS,

OPEN WIDE,

SO UNEXPECTEDLY.

I QUESTION MYSELF DAILY.

BUT IF I CAN HELP AND ENCOURAGE

AND EMPATHIZE

WITH ANOTHER

THAT HAS FELT WHAT I'VE FELT,

IS FEELING WHAT I FEEL -

HOPELESS, UGLY,

ALONE AND UNLOVED,

THEN I AM WALKING THROUGH THIS DOOR

UNCARING OF WHAT OTHERS MIGHT THINK,

FOR IT IS ALL FOR YOU

AND YOUR GLORY,

LORD.

WITH YOU, JESUS,

I WILL NOT ONLY WALK

AND NOT GROW WEARY,

BUT I WILL ON THE WINGS OF EAGLES

 FLY.

ISAIAH 40:31

BUT THOSE WHO HOPE IN THE LORD

WILL RENEW THEIR STRENGTH.

THEY WILL SOAR ON WINGS LIKE EAGLES;

THEY WILL RUN AND NOT GROW WEARY,

THEY WILL WALK AND NOT BE FAINT.
