"If a person learns to retreat into his heart and encounter the Lord in silence, he will not lose strength because of external hardships; because he finds rest in God, he will be able to gain strength in all things."
— Thomas Kempe
Source: The Imitation of Christ
📖 Scripture Reference

Isaiah 40:29-31 He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even young men grow weary and tired, and the strong stumble and fall, but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength; they will soar on wings like eagles, running and not growing weary, walking and not fainting.

💭 Reflection

The pressures and hardships of life often leave us feeling exhausted, yet Thomas Kempe reminds us that true strength comes from inner peace and silence. To be silent before God is not to escape reality, but to entrust our burdens to Him and draw renewed strength from Him. Isaiah chapter 40 teaches us that those who trust in the Lord will soar on wings like eagles, undeterred by weariness. May we learn to pause in our busy lives, seek God's peace and strength, and live out our heavenly hope.

🙏 Prayer

Loving Heavenly Father, thank You for giving me rest and strength, helping me to learn to silently rely on You in my labors. Heal my weary soul and give me the strength to soar like an eagle. No matter the circumstances, may I always wait on You, for You are the source of my strength. Lead me in the light, grant me peace and joy, and glory to You. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
