He Gives Power to the Faint
“He gives power to the faint, and to her who has no might he increases strength.” Isaiah 40:29
Let go:
What is it that drains you of energy, vitality, or optimism? Is it emotional strain? Physical demands? Often, it’s a combination of both.
Start over:
There will always be circumstances over which we have no control. Where do you turn when you’re weakened by circumstances?
Move forward:
Jesus said, “Are you tired? Worn out?… Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.” (Matthew 11:28-30, The Message)
