Are you feeling emotionally exhausted—like you're running on empty with nothing left to give? You're not alone. In this encouraging episode of Your Daily Prayer, we invite you to pause and find comfort in God’s unfailing strength. When your spirit is weary and your heart feels heavy, God meets you there. Drawing from the powerful promise of Isaiah 40:29–31, this devotional reminds us that we don’t have to fake strength. We can bring our weakness to the Lord and watch Him renew our energy, restore our soul, and lift us up in His perfect timing. 📖 “He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak… those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.” — Isaiah 40:29–31 Whether you’re navigating burnout, emotional overwhelm, grief, or just feeling spiritually dry—this prayer is for you. 🙏 Prayer: Father God, You know when our souls feel tired—when we’re overwhelmed, burdened, and emotionally drained. Thank You that You never grow weary, and You never ask us to carry our burdens alone. Remind us today that we can lean on You—not our own strength. Help us surrender every anxious thought and weary emotion into Your hands. Restore what has been depleted, renew what has withered, and speak peace over our restless hearts. Thank You for being our refuge, our anchor, and our strength. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
