“But they that wait upon 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

While walking through the forest one day, a farmer found a young eagle who had apparently fallen out of his nest.

He took it home and put it in his barnyard with his chickens and there it stayed for years.

It wasn't long before the little eagle learned to eat and behave like the chickens.

One day a naturalist passed by the farm and saw the eagle confined in the barnyard with the chickens.

When he inquired about this strange sight, the farmer told the man his story.

"Unfortunately," said the farmer, "the poor little guy just never learned to fly."

"Still," the naturalist sighed, "he has the heart of an eagle and can surely be taught. Will you allow me to work with him?"

The farmer agreed, but with much disbelief.

The naturalist picked up the eagle and lifted him toward the sky and said, "You belong to the sky and not to the earth. Stretch forth your wings and fly."

The eagle, however, was confused.

He did not know who he was, and seeing the chickens eating their food, he jumped down to be with them again.

The naturalist took the bird to the roof of the house and urged him again, saying, "You are an eagle. Stretch forth your wings and fly."

But the eagle was afraid and jumped down once again to be with his chicken friends.

Finally, the naturalist took the eagle out of the barnyard to a high mountain.

There he held the king of the birds high above him and encouraged him again, saying, "You are an eagle. You belong to the sky. Stretch forth your wings and fly!"

The eagle looked around, back towards the barnyard and then up to the sky.

Slowly, he stretched his wings, and with a triumphant cry, he soared away into the heavens.

Somewhere along the line, we like this poor young eagle, were put in a lowly barn with the chickens of the world around us.

We learned to live and eat from the ground and grew up believing that there was not much more to do than sit and cluck all day.

But the reality is that we are eagles!

We were created to fly and even soar!

God has great purpose for our lives! If we would only realize who we are in Him!

Let's remember who we are today and stop acting like chickens!

We are the head and not the tail!

We are Kings and Priests!

We have great things to do for the Kingdom!
