“But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” - Isaiah 40v31
Sometimes the simple drudgeries of life can seem like too much. Life can just seem to go and on, nothing that bad, but nothing really happening that is exciting either. Sometimes the Christian life can just be a life of waiting. This mundane life can sometimes be worse than being in direct conflict.
At least twice in this chapter God says, “The everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the earth does not faint and He does not get weary.” Whereas we light get tired of waiting and be tempted to faint, God does neither, He is always there. That’s why He can say in verse 31 – “…they that wait on the Lord will renew the strength, they will mount up on eagles, the can run and not grow weary, they can walk and not faint.”
The key here is a patient waiting on God. He has not left us, He is in control, and he is not going to get tired or faint. He will be there, if we can wait on Him he will give strength in His due time.
May we learn to wait on Him so that we may be lifted up!
