But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew
their strength; they shall mount up with wings
as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary;
and they shall walk, and not faint.
Isaiah 40:31
Lately I have had to limp through a valley of pain...

Isaiah 40:31
Lately I have had to limp through a valley of pain...
Every Christian, I believe, knows about the valleys we must pass through on our journey to glory. There are valleys of tears, pain, sin, dryness, weariness, and so much more. But the Lord is faithful, and He never gives us more than we could bear.
After all, I have to wake up every morning to face bars of steel. Yet my joy remains full, and this is because of the grace of God and my hope in His word.
Nevertheless, I shall be glad when my time of refreshing comes, for then I will be able to run and not grow weary. I shall walk and not faint. But in the meanwhile, however, my arthritis has been exceptionally painful. The area around my right hip and all along my right leg feels as if it’s on fire. Thus, I can hardly walk, let alone do any running.
So I shall continue to await my healing, and I will daily seek to stay in the peace of God until it comes.
