Strength

He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
– Isaiah 40:29

Even the most pumped up and positive ones of us find ourselves broken and weary at some point in our life. It isn’t so hard to believe and follow Jesus when we are soaring on the wings of eagles or running and not getting weary in our walk with God. Often the toughest time to keep our faith vibrant is when we are trying to keep putting one foot in front of the other while not fainting. In those moments of absolute powerlessness, weakness, and brokenness the Lord is often most real, most powerful, and most present.

We get a text, every morning, from a friend. A verse and a little devotion.
Isaiah 40:29, this morning.
Though I am not in a deep place brokenness today, this did speak to me.
We have had ALOT of change this month. It has left me cranky and weary. I thought I was ready for change. For the new adventure.
To leave behind a place that I sought refuge in when my toughest years were going on. To let go of the physical aspect of a dream, knowing/understanding that it wasn’t for me at this time. Maybe ever. But that I needed to let it go and embrace the unknown.
