There are two creatures that fascinate me in life. The Jellyfish (known as the Turritopsis nutricula) and the eagle. This two creatures share a fascinating trait - how they respond to extreme pressure. The jellyfish when under extreme pressure or when facing crisis, regenerates itself. The eagle on the other hand when facing a storm does not escape - in simply uses the storm to lift it higher. It rises on the winds that bring the storm.

When the storms of life comes upon us we can choose how to respond - we can either choose to surrender to negative traits of life or rise above them and regenerate beauty from within: how so?- by settling our minds and our belief towards god. The storms do not have to overcome us, we can allow god's power to lift us above them. God enables us to ride the winds of the storm that brings sickness, tragedy, failure and disappointment into our lives. Let us soar above the storm.

Isaiah: 40.31: But those who wait on the lord will find new strength. They will fly high on wings as eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.


Remember it is not the burdens of life that weigh us down; it is how we handle them. Stay blessed. Stay Focus. With you in prayers :)
