Strength to the Weary

STRENGTH
Monday, February 13, 2017
“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
God is Creator. 
He is everlasting.
He is strong. 
What does He do with His strength?
He gives it away to those who need it. 

Sometimes life is just flat out overwhelming. 
But He doesn't want us to go it alone. 
He wants us to lean on Him, depend on Him, and draw our strength from Him. 

Lord, sometimes life is out of control. Out of OUR control, that is. Help us to completely submit to you and your control. And with the hope that comes from submission, we welcome the strength you will give us.
