A Prayer for Renewed Hope in Times of Weariness

Christine F. Perry

Dear Lord,
Your Word says in Isaiah 40:30-31, "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." Lord, you know exactly what each reader is weary from. You see them, and you see their situation. Lord, I pray that you would help us all to hope in you and you alone. Father, you say in Psalm 46:1 that you are "…our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." Later on in this same Psalm, it says, "Be still, and know that I am God." Lord, we are tired and weary. We need You. We are asking for your strength for one more day to face the situations we are dealing with. Lord, we love you. Please help us not to grow weary in doing good. Please infuse us with your peace and joy today. I pray all this in Jesus' name. Amen.
