For our children:

________ did you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding you can not fathom. He will give you strength when you are weary and increase your power when you are weak. Even though you grow tired and weary, stumble and fall; because you have hope in the LORD, He will renew your strength. And ____, you will soar on wings like eagles; and you will run and not grow weary, and you will walk and not be faint. (Isaiah 40:28-31)

Amen
