A Little Bit of Faith: Renew Your Strength

Do you ever get tired of waiting? Have you ever waited for something for a long, long, time? All of us have waited for something from time to time.  And we may have been disappointed when it did not happen.  In the book of Isaiah we are told that if we wait on the Lord our strength will be reenergized. Isaiah 40:31 says, “…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.”

It is easy to become discouraged by disappointments in life. A discouraging word can bring a person down even lower. It is difficult for us to wait for good things to happen, but if we learn to be patient there can be a renewed strength that comes when we see that our waiting was not in vain.

Discouragement in one’s life can leave the strongest person to discount anything good will ever come their way.  This is why it is important for the believer in Christ to lean totally on His faith to help Him get through life’s difficult moments.  Don’t even try to depend on your own strength, because when you do, you will always fall short.

Remember that you have the best cheerleader—God.  With God on your side, how can you lose?  Trust in God and wait on Him, He will give you the right answer you need each and every time. God is a right on time God! Amen? Amen.
