     Words of Wisdom 

       Taken from "A Word Fitly Spoken"  by Mark Fugate



Isaiah the prophet wrote in 40:31, “We shall mount up with wings
like eagles. We shall run and not grow weary. We shall walk and not faint.” This verse used to mystify me. It seemed out of sync, like it should be turned around. I always felt we should walk, then run, then fly. But the older I get the more I understand and appreciate what Isaiah is saying. When you first accept Jesus as Lord and Savior, you are so excited you want to fly like an eagle. You are on fire, your head is in the clouds, and you are ready to tackle every sinner you meet for the cause of Christ. Then as the years go by you settle back and run with perseverance like a marathoner. But the real test of faith is that of time and endurance; that daily humble walk with God. That’s what it’s all about.

Choose the word(s) that describe your walk with Christ today:
      a) flying
      b) running
      c) walking by faith 
      d) stalled out
Make plans to get walkin’.

Micah  6:8
