Soar

"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." - Isaiah 40:31

It was nice to gain my hour of sleep back this past weekend. However, it is not nice having darkness swoop in before dinner. I've been ready to go to bed at 8 every night this week. The darkness and ensuing tiredness seem to correlate with the ongoing election battle. Never in my career has there been a more stressful time for HFD. I know most of us are experiencing a mental fatigue like never before. 

One thing is for certain, this world will let you down. Our city officials have and will continue to let us down. We should all have the mayor and city council be our pallbearers so they can let us down one last time. Even the people we love and trust let us down from time to time. It is easy to lose hope when elections,  court cases, and life don't go our way.

God is the only One who won't let us down. He Always follows through with His promises.  He hasn't let me down yet. We should focus our hope on the sure thing, Him. In fact when we do, He gives us the strength to face everything that comes our way. His Word promises that we will SOAR. Are you tired of just getting by? Are you ready to soar? Then, put your hope and trust in Him.
