Psalm 103:5
MY YOUTH IS RENEWED LIKE THE EAGLE'S...
That explains it!
Why I look and feel so young! Notice I didn't say fit and handsome! (Though I could have!) But I do look and feel young and I can only put it down to the grace of God in my life over so many years. It has been His fitness programme not mine! It is from the good living that comes from being 'sold out' for Jesus rather than the high living of the rich and famous.
You probably think I jest, but I do believe it is true. Why else do people quite widely miss my age when they guess! No, they are not all being polite either! I do feel young; I feel enthusiastic about life; I thoroughly enjoy a good laugh; I experience fun and a deep down joy and peace that has got to and does have a tremendous effect on my heart, my soul and my spirit.
I enjoy telling people how great my Jesus is. What a wonderful Saviour He is. What a constant friend. What a sympathetic Counsellor; What a mighty God and glorious King He is.
Whenever I think of, let alone hear or say, the Name of 'Jesus' I get a thrill in my spirit, a tingle up my spine, a smile on my face and a radiance in my countenance which are all real, and exciting. It relaxes my body and brings it vitality and peace. No wonder my youth is being renewed.
Isaiah says, "Those that wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up as on eagles wings." Wait on the Lord, my friend, wait on the Lord. Wait on Him everyday of your life from this moment on.
Wait upon Him now. Quietly rest in His Presence after you have read today's devotional. Sit quietly and ask Him to renew your strength. No matter what you are facing. No matter what your circumstances are - wait on the Lord - He is waiting for you.
Let Him grant you His peace, assurance, acceptance and rest. Take time out to let Him renew your youth like the eagle's.
THEN GO AND SOAR FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY!
