WE WAIT ON GOD
Those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles.
Isaiah 40;31
Nowhere does the Bible teach that Christians are exempt from tribulation and natural disaster. We live in a world infected with the disease of sin, and we share in its misery and pain.
But the Bible does teach that we can face trials with a power others do not have, the power of God. As we trust Him, God helps us endure, and even discern His purpose in the midst of suffering. Christiana Tsai, the Christian daughter of a former govenor in China wrote, "Throughout my many years of illness (53), I have never dared to ask God why He allowed me to suffer so long. I only ask what He wants me to do."
The eagle has the unique ability to lock its joints and soar effortlessly on an updraft, instead of flapping its wings. As we wait on God, He helps us use the winds of adversity to soar above our problems. As the Bible says, "Those who wait on the Lord shall mount up with wings like eagles."

Always remember, with God all things are possible
