He gives me strength...

 

What a week this has been!  Tragedies seem to unfold continually.  Friends, families and loved ones face trials unexpectedly.  Even the weather seems unstable as we experience fifty degree differences within a couple days. 

As I often say to my husband when life becomes overwhelming...sometimes I just want to run and hide on a mountain somewhere.  Then I remember, there is a place to go when we are weary, wounded and without strength.  There is Someone Who never takes His eyes off of His children...nor ceases to hold them in His loving arms. 

I will rest there as He reminds me of His everlasting love, His eternal hope, His extraordinary power and His excellent plan for my life...all while He embraces me each moment.  Thank You, God, for never letting go yesterday, today or forever.  ♥~thl

"Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth.  He will not grow tired or weary, and His understanding no one can fathom.  He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.  Even youths grow tired and weary and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.  They will soar on wings like eagles: they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint."  Isaiah 40: 28>31
