"But the people who trust the Lord will become strong again. They will rise up as an eagle in the sky; they will run and not need rest; they will walk and not become tired." (NCV)
What is God saying?
Trusting in God will give us the strength and energy we need to have in life.
What is God saying to us today?
There are so many energy supplements and drinks in the market these days - some guarantee to last for a certain number of hours, others promote a fun, party lifestyle, and one even says that it will give us wings! Yet despite all of these products (including the coffee we drink by the gallon), people seem to be more tired than ever. It seems as if most people's status is "tired" - or maybe "busy and tired". There is just something about this sin-filled world that is draining and makes us search for an external source of super-charged energy. The good news is that God offers such a source to us for free - and it doesn't give us the shakes or make us crash after using it. Placing our faith in God gives us the energy that we need to deal with all the things of life.
What is God inviting us to do?
Do you feel like you could use a energy boost today? God invites us to trust that He will see us through whatever it is we are facing. He promises that when we do, we will find the energy to keep going, because we know that God is there with us.
