Be Strong in The Lord
My husband and I were down by the river the one day and counted seven bald eagles high in the branches of a cottonwood tree, waiting for a fish to swim by.
Then one bald eagle took off, soared high in the air (with an awesome wing span) and then perched on a tree stump in the middle of the river. And, my husband said, “He can see closer from there!”
And my heart began to sing, “Be strong in the Lord, and be of good courage; Your mighty defender is always the same. Mount up with wings, as the eagle ascending; Victory is sure when you call on His name.”— Johnson.
“But they that wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”— Isaiah 40:31.
