But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.    Isaiah 40:31

The old familiar version. You know when I heard this again, I thought to myself, we surely are not to sit around and wait
on the Lord. The Lord has done His part. He came Himself to be the sacrifice for our sin. I believe He is waiting on us now to accept this sacrifice.

The New Living translation says in verse  - 31
But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength.

They will soar high on wings like eagles.
They will run and not grow weary, They will walk and not faint.

I like "trust" much better! If we trust in the Lord, (be patient; seek; and spend time with), we will find the strength we need to live "the abundant Life", that God so wants us to enjoy. We will go about our Living, soaring above the hum drum world around us. We will go through our days getting only tired in our body, we will face the next day with confidence
and assurance of a great tomorrow.

Teach me Lord to wait!

Have an "Abundant Life" day
Mr. Bill
