Be Strong Like the Eagle

I was listening to Joel Osteen yesterday and he mentioned something that was cool, something I did not know. He said that an eagle’s strength is found in its diet, that, as long as it is not in captivity, it only feeds on living food. Its diet is on the living and not the dead. Eagles are not like buzzards or vultures.

We are compared to an eagle in the Bible. See Psalm 103:5 and Isaiah 40:31. As an eagle, I need to make sure that I am on a steady diet of the living Word of God. I need to keep myself from taking in evil and negativity. After all, I believe we will become like that which we eat.

Be careful of what you let into your ears and eyes. Be careful of what you believe about yourself. Be in the Word and learn who you are in Christ.


In Christ,
