暴風雨中翱翔的雄鷹

Eagles in a Storm

佚名 / Anonymous

Did you know that an eagle knows when a storm is approaching long before it breaks?

The eagle will fly to some high spot and wait for the winds to come. When the storm hits, it sets its wings so that the wind will pick it up and lift it above the storm. While the storm rages below, the eagle is soaring above it.

The eagle does not escape the storm. It simply uses the storm to lift it higher. It rises on the winds that bring the storm.

When the storms of life come upon us and all of us will experience them we can rise above them by setting our minds and our belief toward 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 bring sickness, tragedy, failure and disappointment in our lives. We can soar above the storm.

Remember, it is not the burdens of life that weigh us down, it is how we handle them.

你是否知道暴風雨來臨之前,老鷹很早便能預知它何時到來呢?

老鷹會飛向高空,期待著大風的來臨。當暴風雨襲來時,它會順著風而振翅高飛,飛到暴風雨之上。當暴風雨變得更加猛烈時,它已在高空翱翔。

老鷹不會躲避暴風雨。它隻會借助暴風雨,借助暴風雨前夕的風而飛得更高。

當生活的暴風雨襲來時,我們同樣可以利用意誌和虔誠的信念,飛到暴風雨之上,經曆暴風雨的洗禮。暴風雨絕對不能戰勝我們,相反,我們可以借助上帝的力量戰勝它們。

上帝激勵我們勇於戰勝生活中的暴風雨(如疾病、悲劇、失敗、失望等),我們同樣可以翱翔於暴風雨中。

記住,生活本身的重擔並不能壓垮我們,而是取決於我們麵對它時的心態。

在人生的暴風雨來臨時,我們是否也能夠像雄鷹那樣,振翅高飛,淩駕於暴風雨之上?我想答案是肯定的,因為上帝賜予我們磨難原本就是為了曆練我們,隻是人們常常被眼前的安逸蒙蔽了雙眼,以至於曲解了上帝的好意。
