God's strength

I started a new job yesterday and part of it is getting up much earlier than I am used to so that I have time for the commute and arriving on time to be prepared to begin the day. Like any job, there are pluses and minuses.

But on top of a new (early) routine, I spent time in the middle of the night caring for a sick family member. I would never begrudge them that care but the reality is that this morning I am exhausted and facing another long day. I'm not sure how I'm going to do it.

And then I found this in the middle of a morning devotional.

"He gives power to the tired and worn out, and strength to the weak." (Isaiah 50:29 NLT)

Good. I'll be able to do this after all.
