I wait and hope that in my lifetime we’ll see cars flying nearly the way they do on “The Jetson’s” cartoon television program!!
In yesterday’s update I purposely omitted an additional benefit of “waiting” on the Lord. It’s probably because I’m not sure what “soaring on wings like eagles” specifically denotes in Isaiah 40, but I do embrace the imagery.
You’ll notice that the verse doesn’t say that we will fly …. but it does say that when we wait on the Lord we will SOAR on WINGS like EAGLES.
SOARING on wings like eagles …. Just imagine the exhilaration and freedom that one would feel soaring on wings like eagles …. I also wonder if the experience would be similar to the “self actualization” Maslow proposes in his hierarchy of needs ….
Irene had an early morning dialysis treatment and enjoyed lunch with Sue Martinez who also brought her home. Irene and I later had a very relaxing and inspiring dinner at Mama Mia’s with Reed Jolley, our pastor friend from Santa Barbara.
What’s the prerequisite to SOARING on wings like eagles? Simply, to “wait” …. and there is never disappointment when we “wait” according to God’s economy because ….
His way is perfect.
Psalm 18:30
As we wait for Irene’s body to heal, I’m not sure if we’ll see flying cars in our lifetime but this I do know …. that if we wait on the Lord he promises that we’ll soar on wings like eagles, and that sounds like a very invigorating ride!
