Waiting...

Tonight, I decided to rest for a few minutes and meditate on God’s goodness in my life. I admit I feel a little tired and weary. I’ve been working a lot. And since yesterday, I only have 3 hours of sleep. So, I’m very much exhausted.
I sat at the balcony, trying to clear my mind from everything that’s bothering me. I just want a moment of silence and feel God’s loving embrace. My sister’s book caught my attention. It is a compilation of great Bible verses that are uplifting to the soul. I took it and asked God to direct me in a particular verse that I need. When I opened the book, these are the verses that I saw:

Isaiah 40:28-31

King James Version (KJV)
 28Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.
29He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.
30Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:
31But 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.
I can’t believe it. God really spoke to me through these powerful verses. No matter what we feel and what circumstance we are in, the Lord is really faithful in His promises. We must not forget to hold on to His words.
