“But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles.”
Isaiah 40:31
Waiting is its own kind of tired. Not the clean exhaustion of hard work, but the slow ache of not knowing: the unanswered prayer, the delayed yes, the door that still has not opened.
Isaiah does not promise the wait will be short. He promises something better: that those who hope in the Lord will have their strength renewed from the inside out. The waiting itself becomes the place where God rebuilds you.
So if you are in the in-between today, you are not falling behind. You are being renewed for what is next. Strength is coming, not around the waiting, but straight through it. Keep bringing your hope to God, one honest prayer at a time.
A prayer
Father, waiting is hard, and I am tired of not knowing. Renew my strength while I wait on You. Teach me to trust Your timing more than my own, and to find You right here in the meantime. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
