#Ages #one to #seventy-nine were at our recent #family gathering for #birthday #celebrations in #Atlanta while we renewed our love for one another. After all the traveling,..eating, restaurants, shopping, park concert with food trucks, we still managed to visit and share presents with tall tales; however, all ages were exhausted including the dogs! Yes, we have dogs and service dogs in our family. My son and youngest daughter are in wheelchairs, one granddaughter has a prosthesis, my first born daughter suffered a head injury from a car accident, and her daughter suffers with seizures. Would you believe I was reading Isaiah 40 during my morning devotion one of the days of our celebration…how appropriate! “Have you not known: Had you not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, does not faint, neither is weary: there is no searching of His understanding. He gives power to the faint and to them that have no might He increases their strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: but they that wait upon the LORD SHALL RENEW THEIR STRENGTH, they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. . . .(41:10)Fear not; for I AM with you; be not dismayed; for I AM your GOD: I will strengthen you; yes, I will help you; yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness….For I the LORD your GOD will hold your right hand, saying , Fear not; I will help you” When you are weary and feel you cannot carry on…turn to the only LIVING GOD who can hold your hand.
