Have you ever fainted? That is our body’s response to when we may get too hot, have low blood pressure, or experience intense emotions such as fear or being overwhelmed. Isaiah writes that we are eventually all going to faint or burn out in our spiritual lives if we try to rely on our own strength and abilities. Some of us know from personal experience. God offers us the support and strength we need to do life! We have all faced hardships this past year, but we can look forward going ahead and rely on God for our strength. This is a continual process of training your heart to turn to Him first. This comes in the form of fellowship with God in prayer, reading His Word, and being with our community in the local church.
