Weary? Ask for some strength

from-my-journal-postLast week I had an absolutely whirlwind week of meetings in Manhattan. I hit the ground running Saturday afternoon and had meetings every single day and night I was there until I left the following Saturday afternoon. And every single meeting was amazing. Really. (If you follow me on Instagram, you got a taste of my adventures. Pretty amazing– right?)

My mind was blown. I got so much great insight and advice… and tons of encouragement. We are definitely on to something with Wine4.Me!!

My go, go, go week (two nights I was up until after 4 a.m. and then ready for meetings a few hours later) has taken a bit of a toll, though. I think adrenaline carried me through so much and now, I’m one tired mama.

I loved coming across this verse this morning:

“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 40:31

Not only did God have my back and hook me up with so many amazing people in NYC, He’s got it now and always. I just need to remember to ask for strength and then listen. His response might be to rest, to read, to meditate or to plow through.. but I won’t know unless I ask Him. And listen.

Today I’m going to do my best to be still and listen for a bit.

Are you feeling weary? If so, wanna join in on the asking and listening?

  1. Hi friend! You must have been reading my mind today! This is the EXACT verse that I needed to read today. I am definitely weary (I have another paper due this weekend) but HE will get me through (and this verse will help). Great seeing you last week!
