strengthen

Strengthen the weak hands, and make firm the feeble knees. Say to those who have an anxious heart, “Be strong; fear not! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, with the recompense of God. He will come and save you.” Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf unstopped; then shall the lame man leap like a deer, and the tongue of the mute sing for joy. For waters break forth in the wilderness, and streams in the desert; the burning sand shall become a pool, and the thirsty ground springs of water; in the haunt of jackals, where they lie down, the grass shall become reeds and rushes. (Isaiah 35:3-7 ESV)

Have you ever been sop anxious in a situation you just wanted to run away?

You hear the sound track of Brave Sir Robin of Camelot, “Brave Sir Robin ran away…” You feel so compelled by your anxiousness to get away from the situation. It seems there is no way out of the trouble, and you try to think your way through it, but it jut seems fruitless…

And in that moment the above picture is right, you have a choice. You can forget everything and run, or you can face everything and rise. You see God is not leaving you alone in this mess, He is here with you and will see you through. So no matter what dark place you are walking into, there is no reason to fear what will happen, because He is with you and He will give you the strength to see you through.
