Eagle

The Eagle has the longest lifespan among birds
It can live up to 70 years
To reach this age it must make a hard decision
In its 40’s, it’s long and flexible talons
Can no longer grab prey which serves as food
Its long and sharp beak becomes bent
Its old age and heavy wings
Due to their thick feathers
Becomes stuck to its chest
Making it difficult to fly
The eagle is left with only two options:
Die Or go through a process of change lasting 150 days
The process requires that the eagle flies to a mountain top
And sits on its nest
There the eagle knocks its beak against the rock
Until it plucks it out
After plucking it out the eagle will wait
For a new beak to grow back
Then it will pluck out its talons
When the new talons grow back
The eagle starts plucking its old age feathers
After five months the eagle take its famous flight of rebirth
And lives for 30 more years

Isaiah 40:31
But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength
They shall mount up with wings of eagles
They shall run and not be weary
They shall walk and not faint
