“Who satisfies your mouth with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.” Psalm 103:5

Prior to the Wright Brothers taking flight over Kitty Hawk, man dreamed of taking to the skies in flight. The fascination is found all through scripture where soaring above the troubles of earth is a common theme. Today, I look at modern machines, some weighing hundreds of tons while sitting on the ground, yet lift like a bird when propelled forward, allowing an invisible stream of air to pass their wings and lift them with seemingly little effort. Such flight brings an interesting parallel to mind.

Even Your Heaviest Burden Can Be Lifted

Over and over again I’ve heard a recurring theme from those I meet on my journey; “My burden is too heavy”. They don’t believe it can be lifted. They don’t believe they can be, as Psalm 103 says, “renewed like the eagle”. You are right, you can’t do it alone. It is God alone who satisfies and renews. He is the ultimate remodeler of lives. The par-excellence ‘fixer upper’. No burden is too heavy for God to lift. Just ask Him.
