Renewed

It’s possible to have faith that is strong even as we have hearts that are shattered because the everlasting God gives strength to the weary.

“Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” (‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭40:28-31‬ ‭NIV, emphasis mine)

God renews us.

Once renewed, we will find ourselves soaring, running, and walking again.

Today, you may not feel like doing any of those, and that’s okay. Wait on Him, and He will renew you. We don’t walk, run, or soar in our strength, but in His.

He only asks us to wait on Him, to wait with Him, to wait close to Him. In that place and that position, our power will increase.
