THE SECRET OF REAL LIFE AND ENERGY
29 He gives power to the weak,
And to those who have no might He increases strength.
30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary,
And the young men shall utterly fall,
31 But those who wait on 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.
The secret of real life and energy is to be found in these inspired words quoted above. Those who receive the strength and vigor that come only from God are those who realize that in themselves they are weak and have no strength (verse 29). When we see our weakness then we are ready to “wait on the Lord” and receive His strength. God doesn’t change and He always has been and still is the only real source of life and health (see Acts 17:28). You don’t have to go to expensive health spas or spend a lot of time and money seeking for the latest “fountain of youth” that is being marketed. THE secret is found in these simple words "those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength.” Do you really believe this? If so, then communion with God, waiting upon Him, learning to know Him and experiencing His love will indeed be the center of your life and every good work that you need to do will flow out of that.
“To have found God and still to pursue Him is the soul’s paradox of love.”― A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God: The Human Thirst for the Divine
