You could never fly high with dead weight on your back.

But they who wait upon the Lord will renew their strength, they shall mount up their wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint. Isiah 40:31

When most of us wake up each day, we either see or hear birds outside our window sounding like they are singing their hearts out. “For all we know they could be having a serious conversation about what they have planned for the day.” Because they sound like music to our ears its a welcome sound each morning.

How many people can say when they wake up each morning they get to see a bold eagle sitting out side their window. “Not many.”

“Let me say in this disclaimer that no one on the planet actually knows if they are living like God created them to be living. That would be between you/them and God.”

The Amercian bald eagle officially represents, freedom strength, courage, and independence. Back in Jesus day the mention of the eagle to a jewish person would anger a lot of people and one might be scorned due to the eagle being looked at as a primary military standard of the Roman Legions. Because the jewish people deeply resented being controlled and taxed by a foreign pagen power, the eagle became the ultimate visual representation of Roman tryanny.

In the Old Testement of the Bible, the eagle is seen as a symbol of strength. In the book of Isaiah 40:31 God said, he who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.

The bald eagle officially became America’s national symbol of freedom, strength, and power on June 20, 1782 when the Second Continental Congress adopted it as the centerpiece of the Great Seal of the United States.

Living like The eagle is a powerful metopher for embrasing a life of high vision, resilience and constant renewal, encouraging individuals to rise above negativity and mediocrity.

Living in a world where we have challenges confronting us at every turn. Our health, lost of a loved one, relationships, divorce, financial strain, loneliness, setbacks, personal growth, our own negative thinking, low confidence, no confidence, self doubt, and heartbreak.

Feeling hopefully and positive can be a challenge in itself. You have to remind yourself that determination will help you stay grounded.

• Rise above one negative habit.
• Walk toward one meaningful goal everyday.
• Learn something new each week.
• Turn one challenge into a lesson.
• Everyday we should encourage at least one person.

Eagles fly at high attitudes avoiding the crows and the chicken heads that dewell in lower negative energy. Unlike other birds that hide from storms, eagles use intense winds of a temptest to rise to greater heights. This symbolizes using life’s challenges, struggles and failures to use as opportunities to grow stronger and reach knew potential. Eagles have remarkable vision and focus, able to tune in on prey miles away.

In psychology, the eagle is viewed as a powerful archetype and personality symbol. Psychologists and behavioral researchers highlight the eagle’s strength as a metaphor for resilience and adaptability, while its discipline is linked to fierce focus, self-reliance, and emotional control. Eagles go through a molting process to shed old feathers. In human terms sphychologists view this behavioral of adaptation as the discipline as continuous renewal, letting go of the past and adapting to changing circumtances.

Living like an eagle means when someone insults you, you don’t immediately retaliate. When circumstances become diffulcult, you chose faith, wisdom, and patience instead of anger, and despair.

An eagle who listens to chicken heads and crows will never learn how to fly.
