He will not grow tired or weary

Sophie - July 27, 2010 - Comments (2)

This past Friday I was driving home after spending the week with out-of-town family and friends, and I was listening to an old Watermark song based (at least in part) on Isaiah 40:28-31. Here's what the passage says:

"Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The LORD is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary,
and his understanding no one can fathom.

He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.

Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;

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."

You know how sometimes you're struck by something completely new and different from a few verses that you've heard countless times in your life? Well, that's what happened to me as I listened to the song.

And here's what struck me more than anything else: the will.

Because we have a patient, faithful God who will never grow tired or weary, there are certain things that will happen for those of us who put our hope in Him.

These aren't things that can happen or might happen or should happen or sometimes happen. These things will happen.

Our strength will be renewed.

We will soar on wings like eagles.

We will walk and never grow weary.

We will run and not grow faint.

It's not up for debate. It's not an uncertainty. It's not a 50/50 shot.

We will.

We will.

Thank you, Lord.
