He does not forget you...

Taken from the Chapter 40 of the Book of Isaiah:

27 Why do you say, O Jacob, and assert, O Israel,
"My way is hidden from the LORD,
And the justice due me escapes the notice of my God"?
28 Do you not know? Have you not heard?
The Everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth
Does not become weary or tired
His understanding is inscrutable.
29 He gives strength to the weary,
And to him who lacks might He increases power.
30 Though youths grow weary and tired,
And vigorous young men stumble badly,
31 Yet those who wait for the LORD
Will gain new strength;
They will mount up with wings like eagles,
They will run and not get tired,
They will walk and not become weary.

Hi Donna! I LOVE those last verses... some of the most motivating words I know. Have you ever thought about how eagles are used in the Bible? It's something to look into if you haven't since there is so much encouragement from it. Grace, peace, and love.
