Those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength.
\n \u2014 Isaiah 40:31<\/p>\n
The challenges of life can feel overwhelming at times. I remember when I was faced with a difficult decision that required more energy and wisdom than I felt I had within me. I tried to rely on my own strength and resources, but it quickly became apparent that I was running on empty.\u00a0This is where God\u2019s promise of renewal comes in. It\u2019s not about having strength to do it all on our own; it\u2019s about trusting in God, whose strength is limitless. In the same way that an eagle soars with ease, we have the strength to rise above our struggles when we hope in God. We don\u2019t have to fight through our challenges on our own power. God equips us with what we need for the journey ahead.\u00a0As we step into the newness of each day, let\u2019s remember that we don\u2019t need to face life\u2019s challenges alone. The Lord\u2019s strength is made perfect in our weakness, and he promises that when we place our trust in him, he will renew our strength and empower us to face whatever comes our way.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lord, thank you for renewing my strength when I feel weak. Help me to trust in your provision and power as I face the challenges ahead each day. Amen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
