Thoughts on Today's Verse.... It is easy for us to live victoriously for the Lord when we are soaring on the wings of eagles. Things are going great. We can see the Lord at work in our life and good things are happening. It can be exciting when we run and don't grow weary doing the work of the Lord, buoyed by his power and presence, as the Holy Spirit shows up and makes us better than we really are. But it often takes real heroes to keep walking without fainting during trying times, attacks from the evil one, or oppressive criticism and opposition. So, dear friend of Jesus, please keep walking forward. Trust the Spirit of the living God is alive in you to empower you, more than you can even ask or think (Ephesians 1:17-20, 4:14-21). The Lord is with you, even when you most fear he has forgotten you. Keep walking, and as you do, may the Lord reveal his sustaining presence to you, in you, and through you!
