Isaiah 40:25-31: God’s Power
God does not tire and does not even pause to catch a breath, Isaiah tells us, and we are happy to hear this news.
God knows everything, inside and out, and we are grateful for God’s wisdom and presence.
God energizes those who get tired, gives fresh strength to those who drop out, and we celebrate God’s willingness to share energy and compassion.
Even young people tire and fall back, Isaiah continues; the young in their prime stumble and fall. And we rejoice in God’s perseverance and courage.
Those who wait upon God find fresh strength. They spread their wings and soar like eagles, they run and do not tire, they walk and do not lag behind. And so we rest in God’s strength, fidelity, hope and love. Let us offer God’s gift of life to someone today who has fallen back, faded out, turned away or collapsed.
