Starting the Week Exhausted? This Will Encourage You

In this Back to the Bible Daily episode, Braden Pedersen speaks into seasons of deep tiredness—physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual—using Isaiah 40:29–31. He reminds listeners that true strength begins with God, explains waiting on the Lord as expectant trust (not passivity), and offers practical encouragement and a short prayer to help you turn to God first so He can renew your strength for whatever today brings.
Read — Read Isaiah 40:29–31 in your Bible.
Reflect — Ask: Where do I feel faint or stretched thin? Which season fits right now—mount, run, or walk? Turn that specific burden toward God and notice His promise to renew strength.
Respond — Short prayer: "Lord, I am weary. Give me Your strength today. Teach me to wait on You and renew my steps. Amen."
Reveal — Share Isaiah 40:29–31 with someone who’s exhausted, offer a brief word of encouragement or to pray with them, or help with a practical task to show God’s care in action.
