Bringing Blessing

This time of year do you feel especially wearied? Exhausted? Stretched too thin? In Isaiah 40, “weary” is all over the text. God’s people weary in Babylonian exile, awaiting the Lord’s deliverance. With God, however, waiting is actually a season of strengthening. In waiting, God works renewal, a renewal that leads to soaring as eagles. In weariness, Isaiah points to the Holy One born to bring renewal to all the faint and weary…Jesus!
