Isaiah 40:31
“But those who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint.”
This verse comes from the prophet Isaiah, writing to a people facing or in exile, assuring them of God's power and faithfulness. It follows a majestic description of God as the creator and sustainer of the universe, contrasting divine strength with human weakness.
What might it look like to wait actively for something beyond our immediate control, rather than simply giving up hope?
