This verse is so full of imagery! I should tape this to my monitor at work. How often I pray for strength and/or guidance in a situation but then don't have the patience to wait for an answer. Those situations often end badly. Patience is so difficult but so necessary. It keeps us from saying something out of anger and instead allows us to discuss calmly. It keeps us from making stupid mistakes and acting irrationally. It allows us to hold onto hope. Be patient. The rewards are worth it.
But they who wait for 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.
Isaiah 40:31 ESV

Let's pray for someone we know who lacks patience (this may mean including yourself in your prayer). I'll post daily reminders on:
