This poem was written by my Aunt Rose who is 85 years old. She is an amazing lady. She inspires me and gives me hope…I hope her poem will bless you!
When life seems like a heavy burden and it’s difficult to rise from bed…
Things get complicated, I find a need to pray, instead,
“God of life, I reach out to you for help…
On my own, I cannot walk through another day,
I need You to hold me up and help me find my way…
Renew me in Your strength, for when I’m weak; You make me strong.
Breathe your Hope into my spirit, please don’t leave me alone.”
Help me to believe, my heavy heart will again rise and run…
I will rise up and fly on eagle’s wings, toward the rising sun…
Let the Light of your healing Love shine, into the hurts, despairs, and
Dark places of this heart of mine.
In the name of Jesus, purify this heart with Your Love Divine.
On my darkest day I know the sun will shine.
It takes Faith to believe for things we cannot see…
You hold the world in Your hand…
That’s where I, desire to be. Amen!
Isaiah 40:31

Isaiah 40:31 The Passion Translation (TPT)
But those who wait for Yahweh’s grace will experience divine strength.[a] They will rise up on soaring wings and fly like eagles, run their race without growing weary, and walk through life without giving up.[b]
Footnotes:
-
Isaiah 40:31 Or “will grow new feathers like eagles” (LXX) or “renew their strength.” An eagle has the longest lifespan of any bird. See Ps. 103:5.
- Isaiah 40:31 Or “without fainting.” The outer court is where we walk, the Holy Place is where we run, and we soar like eagles (into the heavenly realm) in the Holy of Holies (Heb. 10:19).
