Soaring Through Storms

Isaiah 40:31
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.

Everlasting God~
You are the Creator of everything. Because You have unlimited power, You never grow tired or weary. You are always available to re-energize me and refresh my strength during the seemingly hopeless storms of life. Like an eagle, in the midst of the storm, I’ll spread my wings of faith to embrace the wind. Placing my dependency on You and You alone, I’ll experience quiet wonders:

  • Your bliss will balance my burdens
  • Your power will pick up my problems
  • Your peace will pacify my pain
  • Your tenderness will touch my troubled heart

Soaring will become an adventure of discovering just how faithful You are. It will be an exhilarating experience to fly above the worrisome world! Free to fly, I’ll trust You to carry me through chaos and confusion.

Please use the turbulence in my life:

  • To take me higher in my relationship with You
  • To fall deeper in love with You
  • To grow stronger my faith in You
  • To walk more vigorously with You
  • To bear more fruit for You

Use the wicked winds of doubt to grow my wings of faith. Just as strong gales make it possible for the eagles to soar, so sin, suffering and sorrow make it possible for me to rise above troublesome storms. Please dear Lord, just give me more confidence to wait through the mourning with renewed strength, and not grow weary. As I fly, I will focus on my final destination, Paradise, where I’ll live happily ever after because of Jesus. Amen.


What storm are you facing? Are you soaring through it with Holy Spirit power?
