But those who wait on the LORD Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.
No matter what happens, God is there. We cannot lose faith in the down times, that is when we need it the most. It is when we are at rock bottom that God is the only thing, we can trust in. He loves us and he knows us and he will help us through it all and get us back on our feet again. We are children of God, so we must trust in the good parent in good times and in bad. To lift our faith when waiting for the big things, we need to remember the small miracles; we woke up this morning, there are people who love us, we have food to eat, there was a beautiful rainbow after the rain, and many more. Look for the little moments of God and patiently wait for the rest. In His time and in His love those things will come. Pray, Believe and Hang on.
Oh Lord my God, help me when my faith is weak and show me your glory all around me. Help me to get through the hard times knowing that you are with me and will get me through. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
