So, humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor. Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you. 1 Peter 5:6-7 NLT

We all need to be held in the hands of the One who created us to rise. God helps us spread our wings and fly. He prepares us to leave worries behind when we're ready to be lifted. 

Sometimes we compare ourselves to others who seem to know when it’s time to take flight. We become weary in the thought of letting go. But God knows our hearts. He longs for us to be patient while we wait to be grown and guided by His greatness. 

God has a plan for our days. His timing is not our own. Every living thing has a purpose. We were not created to remain in a comfort zone. God arms us with everything we NEED to be fueled by His strength when we're ready to receive. 

It may take a while to bravely surrender doubt. But God will be honored when we make the decision to take the first step and BELIEVE we will be carried by love. He will hold us together in PEACE. 

Birds sing before the sun has a chance to rise. Their expressions of joy should encourage us to praise God for opening our eyes. His mercies are new each and EVERY day. We mustn’t hold back when seasons of life require a change. 

God is HERE! He knows what He’s doing to bless us our lives. Be faithful and persevere. Be patient in the wait. God will prepare us to soar! We will discover amazing things if we remain faithful and remember why we will never have to fly without Him. 

Dear God, thank you helping us recognize when it’s time to make a significant change and draw closer to YOU. Thank you for the power of Your love. Help us do what needs to be done to leave doubt behind. Thank you for precious moments when You hold us in Your hands and remind us to be faithful. YOU help us spread our wings and fly. We’re so grateful for the power of Your love. It lifts us in mighty ways! Thank you, Lord. Amen
