The Eagle's Secret - Traditional (Isaiah 40:31)

Eagles don't flap their way to high altitudes—they soar on thermals. When a storm approaches, other birds hide. Eagles fly toward the storm, using its updrafts to rise higher. They spread their wings and let the wind do the work. Isaiah's image isn't about effort but about trust: waiting on the Lord means finding the thermal of God's Spirit and riding it. "They will mount up with wings like eagles"—not through frantic flapping but through positioning themselves to catch God's wind. Are you flapping or soaring?
