Isaiah 40:31 is one of the most popular, frequently quoted verses in the Bible. And I think it's so applicable to where we are in our adventure right now.
I love the context around it:
Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, neither faints nor is weary. His understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall, but those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. (Isaiah 40:28-31)
God's power and strength is as limitless as He is. And it is that strength that He offers to those who will wait on Him. This promise is not just for anyone who is waiting, but those who are specifically waiting on Him. Our job is to make sure that while we're waiting, we're focused on Him, praising and serving Him in all that we do.
This waiting period is not a time of sitting around, twiddling our thumbs, but of actively seeking and pursuing God's will for us--and our music.
Anyway...I just came across these verses again in my devotional this morning, and thought I would share my thoughts! :D
God bless each of you as you wait on Him!
