"I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint." Jeremiah 31:25
Thoughts on Today's Verse by Phil Ware
In the overwhelming, hair-raising, and depressing prophecies of Jeremiah, God repeatedly told his people he would destroy them for their obstinate and hardened hearts. Yet in the middle of these powerful and scorching warnings, God also slips in passages that soar with hope and grace.
Can you think of anything more reassuring than God's promise to "refresh the weary and satisfy the faint"?
For seventy years, that's all Israel had — God's promise. But when the time came, God made good on his word. I believe he will do the same with us today!
My Prayer...
Great Shepherd, I am tired and weary. Please refresh my Spirit and my body. Please help me find satisfaction in the abundance you have already so graciously shared with me. To you belongs all glory, honor, strength and power.
I joyously submit myself in faith, waiting for the rest and satisfaction you have promised. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
