A Living Hope

Renewal & Hope

Scripture
Fear thou not; for I am with thee… I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
Isaiah 41:10 (KJV)

Reflection

Renewal begins in the secret place with God. Isaiah 41:10 tells us, "Fear thou not; for I am with…" The world's strength runs out; His does not. When you feel emptied, the answer is not to push harder but to draw nearer. Sit with the Lord today, even briefly, and let Him do for you what you cannot do for yourself. He restores. He lifts. He refills. Hope is not the absence of weariness; it is the presence of God in the middle of it. Trust Him with the slow work of renewal in your soul.

Prayer

Lord, I wait on You. Renew my strength and lift my eyes above what I can see. Amen.
