Eagles are among the most powerfull birds in the skies. They can glide great distances without even flapping their wings. With wings that may span over seven feet , " the King of Birds ", the golden eagle, is " one of the most impressive of all eagles ; lifting above the hills and plains, {it} soars for hours over some mountain ridge , then rises in spirals until a dark speck in { the } sky."
{-- The Audubon Society Encyclopedia Of North American Birds ... With the flight abilities of the eagle in mind, Isaiah wrote { Jehovah } is giving to the tired one power ; and to the one without dynamic energy he makes full might abound. Boys will both tire out and grow weary, and young men themselves will without fail stumble , but thoses who are hopeing in Jehovah will regain power. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary ; they will walk and not tire out.
{ Isaiah 40:29-31 }
How comforting to know that Jehovah gives thoses trusting in him the power to go on, as if equipping them with the seemingly tireless wings of the soaring eagle !
Consider , now , some of the provisions he has made to give to the tired one power.....
