Journey, DAY 35!! ENOUGH

Isaiah 40: 28-31
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 faint.

Did you notice what God requires of you?  HOPE!  That's it.
The rest is all on him!  God's good news, over and over again, asks people to do two things ... REMEMBER, and  HOPE.  THERE IS NO LIST of things you need to do. Whatever kind of mess you are, God is promising strength, and it's enough.  Sometimes God's strength enables us to soar like eagles.  Sometimes it's enough to run and not be weary.  Sometimes ... it's just enough to walk without fainting.  The thing is,  it's enough.  Keep going.  One more step.  You can do it. Find strength in the character of the One who promises to be enough.

“LORD, thank you.  You are enough.  You are strength and energy and our source of renewal.  Help my countenance glow with confidence in you!
