WAITING

“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 40:31 KJV

I’m not very good at waiting but I’m getting better.  I have arthritis and there are times when I am unable to take a bath and have to wash at the sink and satan uses that to discourage me.  However, I am learning when I can’t take a bath to pray and ask God to encourage me and He does.  He is so faithful.

If there is something you can’t do, pray and ask God to help you do it.  Our Heavenly Father loves us and He will help us when we get discouraged and feel like giving up.  We need to wait for Him to help us and not try and do things by ourselves.  If we will wait for His help, our strength will be renewed.

Heavenly Father, there are times when I get frustrated but I am learning to wait for Your help.  Thank You for the many times You have comforted and encouraged me.  I pray for every person who is discouraged.  Please comfort and encourage them as You have done for me.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
