True Strength

True Strength…

Good morning,

Today, let’s discover where true strength is found.

This is what the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One of Israel, says: “In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength, but you would have none of it.”   Isaiah 30:15

Ever feel like the world’s volume is stuck on high? Do more. Push harder. Keep going. But Isaiah 30:15 interrupts the noise with a holy whisper—reminding us that salvation is found not in striving, but in stillness… that strength is born in quiet trust.

God isn’t impressed by how much you carry or how fast you run. He’s not asking you to outrun your limits—but to return. To rest. To trust.

This isn’t weakness—it’s wisdom. The kind of strength that rises when we stop trying to prove ourselves and start leaning into His grace. It’s peace in the storm. Courage in the quiet. Grace in the surrender.

Your soul wasn’t made for constant pressure—it was made for presence. And in that sacred stillness where we stop striving and start abiding, fear unravels and peace takes its place.

So today, loosen your grip. Slow your pace. Let quiet trust be your brave choice—and discover strength that was never yours to earn, only His to give. Because in a loud and restless world, your strength is still waiting… in the quiet.

Where are you rushing when God is inviting you to rest?

How can you choose quiet trust over anxious striving today?

Gracious Father, In a world that rushes and shouts, thank You for whispering stillness to my soul. Quiet the noise within me and around me. Remind me again that rest is not weakness—it’s worship. That trust isn’t giving up—it’s growing roots. I lay down what was never mine to carry—the fear, the proving, the pressure—and return to the only place I’ll find peace: Your presence. Anchor me in Your love. Wrap me in Your grace. And fill me with quiet strength, steady and radiant, for whatever this day holds. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

God is bigger than time, dates, and appointments. He wants you to move through this day with a quiet heart, an inward assurance that He is in control, a peaceful certainty that your life is in His hands. Put your faith in Him—not in a timetable—and in His perfect way, He will bring to pass what He has for you.

Walk daily with God at your side!

Love always,

Ed 🙏🏼
