EK GAAN OPSTYG SOOS ’N AREND WAT SY VLERKE OOPSPREI

(Die Lewende Bybel)

31 maar dié wat hulle verwagting op die Here stel kry nuwe krag. Hulle sal opstyg soos ’n arend wat sy vlerke oopsprei, hulle sal aanhou loop sonder om moeg te word

(The Message)

31 But those who wait upon God get fresh strength. They spread their wings and soar like eagles, They run and don’t get tired, they walk and don’t lag behind.

IF IT DOES NOT CHALLENGE YOU, IT DOES NOT CHANGE YOU

1. ARENDE VLIEG ALLEEN EN BAIE HOOG

Bly weg van “narrow-minded” mense. Mense met beperkte insig. Hulle sal jou net afbreek en grond toe bring.

Vlieg saam met die arende. Bly in goeie geselskap. Kry mense wat jou lewe verryk. Wie se geselskap jou opbou en uitdaag.

· Kry mense wat ‘n positiewe uitkyk op die lewe het.

· Mense wat ondersteunend is.

· Wat motiverend en uitdagend is. Wat jou verder druk

Die volgende engelse aanhalings uit: https://psychcentral.com/blog/how-to-expand-your-possibilities/ Suzanne kane.

i. Begin met ‘n oop denkvermoë. Instead, cultivate an open mindset, a mental frame of mind where you believe that you are fully capable of meeting any and all challenges, bringing creativity and a fresh approach to problem-solving, discovering the unexpected and learning how to make it useful, valuable, and something to share

ii. Wees altyd weetgierig: If you are curious, you’re more open to new experiences, even unfamiliar routines and meeting people. This provides a foundation for discovering opportunities, finding out that you have talents or strengths and pursuing these unfolding possibilities to enhance your joy of living.

iii. Toets altyd nuwe dinge. “How can you expect to expand your possibilities if you always stick to the same routine, limit your circle of friends, shy away from getting involved in any activity that’s not familiar, and avoid going where you’ve never been before? Fear of the unknown, or fear of failure may be at the root of this apprehension or unwillingness to try new things”

iv. Verbreed jou netwerk broadening your network puts you in contact with people who may be a direct or indirect link to possibilities you hadn’t known about before,

v. Kry altyd ‘n nuwe plan en pas dit aan na omstandighede.

vi. Kry ‘n nuwe entoesiasme in jou lewe. “Excitement, enthusiasm, and exuberance are high motivators for almost any endeavor. When you’re excited, you can’t wait to get going or continue. When you’re enthusiastic, you have a positive mindset and are eager to get to work. Exuberance is the physical and emotional expression of joy and happiness.”

2. ARENDE HET AKURATE VISIE.

Hulle kan fokus op ‘n teiken meer as 5 kilometer ver. Ongeag van enige hindernis sal hulle nie hulle fokus van die prooi afneem totdat hy dit gevang het nie.

Jy moet ‘n visie kry. Daarop fokus ongeag van die hindernisse dan sal jy sukses behaal.

(Die Lewende Bybel)

2 Hou julle oë altyd op Jesus, want Hy lei ons om op God te vertrou en Hy sal ons leier bly tot die einde toe. Hy was gewillig om die skandelike dood op die kruis te sterf ter wille van die vreugde wat voorgelê het. Nou sit Hy in die ereplek in die hemel aan die regterkant van God.

(The Message)

2 Keep your eyes on Jesus, who both began and finished this race we’re in. Study how he did it. Because he never lost sight of where he was headed—that exhilarating finish in and with God—he could put up with anything along the way: Cross, shame, whatever. And now he’s there, in the place of honor, right alongside God.

3. ARENDE VREET NIE DOOIE DINGE NIE.

Breek weg van alles in die verlede. Daar is genoeg nuwe dinge waarop jy kan fokus. Los die verlede waar dit hoort.

Met die water wat verby is sal die meule nooit weer maal nie.

Mislukkings is nie jou lewensverhaal nie. Daar is meer oorwinnings. Geen sportman is 100% suksesvol nie.

Leef in die oomblik. (The Message) 34 “Give your entire attention to what God is doing right now, and don’t get worked up about what may or may not happen tomorrow. God will help you deal with whatever hard things come up when the time comes.

4. ARENDE HOU VAN STORMS.

Al die ander voëls sal wegkruip in storms. Dit is dan wanneer arende opstyg, sweef en sy vlerke spaar.

Arende gebruik die momentum van storms. Suksesvolle mense is nie bang vir uitdagings nie. Hulle gebruik die krag van die storm om hulle vorentoe te projekteer.

· Doen wat Jesus gedoen het. (Die Lewende Bybel) 38 Maar Jesus was agter in die skuit aan die slaap met sy kop op ’n kussing. ..............

God is altyd in die storm by jou. (The Message) 23 this Jesus, following the deliberate and well-thought-out plan of God, …………………………..

(The Message) 13 No test or temptation that comes your way is beyond the course of what others have had to face. All you need to remember is that God will never let you down; he’ll never let you be pushed past your limit; he’ll always be there to help you come through it.

(The Message) 23 God answered Moses, “So, do you think I can’t take care of you? You’ll see soon enough whether what I say happens for you or not.”

5. ARENDE IS ALTYD BESIG OM HULLE VERMOË TE OEFEN

Hulle verwyder die sagte grassies en vere om dit vir kleintjies ongemaklik te maak om in die nes te bly.

Daar is nie ruimte vir gemaksug nie. Wiegies en gemakstoele nie. Daar is geen groei in jou gemaksone nie.

Hulle word selfs uit die nes gestamp om te vlieg.

“Who you are tomorrow begins with what you do today.” – Tim Fargo

6. AS HY OUD WORD MOET HY HOMSELF BESEER VIR NUWE VERE.

Jy moet ontslae raak van ou gewoontes wat jou nie bevorder nie.

Wat hou jou terug? Wat beperk jou? Is daar waarde toevoeging.

As jy aanhou om te doen wat jy nou doen, sal jy altyd hê wat jy nou het.
