The Weary
Isaiah 40:30 (NKJV)
30 Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;
Yes, shocking as it may seem. Even the young will grow weary and will fall. It is not easy to be consistent. There are times where the mind will tell you, it is not possible to go on. It is foolish to give. It is unfair. It is so tiring to commit and love unconditionally.
That day will come, when you are force to make that same decision you made a long time ago. But will you stay the same? Will you press on? Rededicate your life?
Or will you let go? Give up, put down all the resposibilities and leave?
See, it is never going to be easy to stay focused. Life will never be a bed of roses. And bad things do happen to good people. But how you react to it is the most important thing. Think about it, it is always up to you to choose how you want to think and react. Your mind will always be a battlefield. Either you stand firm in what you belief or you doubt and let it all go.
It is not easy. It is not easy. But everytime I get discourage and grow weary, I always remember this
"God did not promise days without pain; laughter without sorrow; sun without rain - But He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way."
Isaiah 40:31 (NKJV)
31 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.
