Do you ever get tired, weary, or drained?

Do you ever get tired, weary, or drained?

September 30, 2025

Do you ever get tired, weary, or drained? Of course you do, we all do! Sometimes, we just want to sit down and say, “I’m tired. Just let me sit for a while.” Wondering all along why—why—why! So, what do you do when life drains you? Do you take it out on the ones you love? Do you yell at those around you? Do you pout and feel sorry for yourself? Do you curl up in a ball and just quit life for a bit? Do you just stare and not move? Or do you pray and pray and pray some more—trusting God to see you through those draining moments, where you are just so tired and weary! Life is life and sometimes we are tired, weary, and drained, we really do want to take a moment, a time out, for a bit. The Good News is God is there with you—so trust Him. Believe that He will get you through this draining time in your life. And know this too will pass. Isaiah 40:29-31 says, “He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. 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.” God Bless. Amen.
