You Don’t Have to Fight Every Battle

Borrowed: THE ONLY BIRD THAT DARES TO ATTACK AN EAGLE IS A CROW, BUT THE EAGLE NEVER FIGHTS BACK. HERE IS WHY:

  1. The crow is the only bird bold enough to sit on the eagle’s back and peck at its neck.
    Relentless. Annoying.
    But the eagle… stays calm.
  2. The eagle doesn’t flap. Doesn’t fight. Doesn’t waste energy. It does one thing: It rises.
  3. The higher the eagle soars. The thinner the air becomes. The crow? It can’t handle the altitude.
  4. Eventually, the crow gasps. Loses strength…And falls off. Not because the eagle attacked. But because the eagle ascended.
  5. Let the crows talk. Let them peck. You don’t have to respond. Just keep going higher.
  6. They can’t follow you forever. Your growth will suffocate their noise. So don’t engage. Elevate.

“But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.” Isiah 40:31 (NLT)
