All in the Lord's strength

Going through my first university exams this week, I have learnt and been reminded that all we do is in the Lord's strength.

God declares against the house of Eli in 1 Samuel 2:30, "Those who honour me I will honour, but those who despise me will be disdained."

And through Isaiah he comforts his people saying,
"He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
... Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;
but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint." (Isaiah 40:29-31).

These numerous 'They will' remind that these are sure and trustworthy. He does not let you fall. Exams are not stress over when the Lord is your God and Saviour. Life is not to worry over when you trust, love, and obey God. Trust him.

Many blesses,
Andrew
