Isaiah 40:31
“But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.”
As each day comes I try and find what the message is that I am to learn. Today it was rest. As it seemed all I wanted to do is sleep. My sisters wanted me to come down for the weekend. It was the hand reaching out to me. The one that God is sending in this time of loss and pain. Though I'm not sure I will head out to see them....As I have another friend that is here from out of town who always lifts my spirits when I am down. It is a strange Lent season for me. I'm sure that is why the Lent letters this year. As I wasn't going to do them....But it was what I was lead to do. God always seems to know what we need to draw us closer to Him so we can hear from Him and follow His perfect direction in a messed up world that we are to bring light and hope to.
Dear Lord I thank you that you do renew our strength and give us what we need as we wait upon you. I thank you that you do mount us up on wings of eagles far above the trails and tribulations of this world and held tightly in your loving care. That we wont grow weary from the race and that you above given us everything we will need as we follow you and what you have for us Lord. I thank you that you reveal to us your goodness even in the darkness of our lives. That you have plans for us not to harm us but to prosper us Lord. I thank you Lord that your will would be done and not our will Lord. That we would continue to lean upon your and not our own understanding in Jesus name. I thank you that you see the full picture of our lives and are weaving it into something far more beautiful than we could ever dream or imagine Lord. I thank you that you are taking those broken pieces the broken toys and fixing them into a tapestry of beauty. Turning those ashes into beauty that you would be glorified in the midst and it would show the world your love for them and us. That you will give all the strength to those who ask and you will renew them and we will not grow weary as you have promised. Thank you Lord for showing your self strong in our lives that others may see and come to know you and serve and be healed in their brokenness and loss in Jesus name Amen
I love you Lord Beth
