Daily Devotional: Rising Above Weariness
On this Tuesday, March 11, 2025, you might already feel the weight of the week pressing in—tasks piling up, energy dipping, or maybe just the quiet ache of routine. But Isaiah 40:31 offers a lifeline: hope in God isn’t passive; it’s powerful. It’s not about mustering more grit from within yourself—it’s about tapping into His endless strength.
Eagles don’t flap frantically; they catch the wind and glide. Today, God’s inviting you to stop striving in your own power and let His Spirit lift you. What’s draining you right now? A relationship? A responsibility? Picture handing it over to Him, trusting He’ll renew you. You’re not meant to trudge through life exhausted—you’re meant to soar. Take a moment to breathe, refocus your hope on Him, and watch how He carries you through this day.
Prayer:
Lord God,
Thank You for being my source of strength when I’m running on empty. Today, I place my hope in You—especially with [name something wearing you down]. Lift me up, Father, like an eagle catching the wind. Renew my energy, my spirit, and my perspective. Help me run today’s race without wearing out and walk through challenges without losing heart. Show me where to step, and let Your strength shine through me to others. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
