Isaiah 40:29-31
29 "He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
30 Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;
31 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 be faint."

@Nancy Reminds me of 2 Corinthians 2.15: " For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved..."
@Heart2Soul Well, thank-you; glad someone reads them, anyway...we do need to feed on the Word daily...You quoted my post...lol. Farouk does a good job of blessing us with his scriptures!
Oh that is so right....and how timely! I have had a rather testing day today....someone who has been a friend to me for a few years now betrayed my trust and told another person in my life things I shared with her in confidence. That hurts deeply.
@Heart2Soul Sad; well, we need above all to keep 'looking unto Jesus' (Hebrews 12.2), even if others disappoint us greatly.
I know...it's hard to do at times...trying to understand why they felt compelled to betray you is what hurts and is confusing. But Jesus was betrayed by one of His own disciples so I kind of understand how He felt.
@Heart2Soul Here's a good verse, anyway: "But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly." (Matthew 6.6)
The Lord knows what we say to Him in secret.
The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves.
He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you,
but will rejoice over you with singing.” Zephaniah 3:17

@Pearl An amazing thought; and it's all of His goodness and grace...
It so is farouk. It blows my mind to think that my God sings over us.
@Pearl Truly so; as the hymn says: '...the things of earth will grow strangely dim, in the light of His glory and grace'.
Turn your eyes upon Jesus; look full in his wonderful face . . . . .

I'm sorry to hear that H2S,
It cuts deep because we open ourselves to people we 'think' we can trust and, when they let you down, it's like a death really. I guess when God said "trust no man", we should prepare ourselves for these things happening...and if it was a sister in Christ, all the more hurtful. I'm sorry.
God comfort and strengthen you my friend.

Amen!
"...very present..." has always somehow meant 'instant' to me. So, we can rest in Him up until the nano second He lifts us up. Now, to rest in that kind of peace is something more than worth striving for...we just have to have faith and believe Him.
