Here’s an affirmation of faith based on Isaiah 40: 28-31, one of the suggested scripture readings for February 5, 2012 (the fifth Sunday after Epiphany). It was written by Bruce Prewer.
Affirmation: Walk and Not Faint
(based on Isaiah 40: 28-31)
This have come to know,
this is what we have heard:
the Eternal is an everlasting God,
creator of heaven and earth,
who does not grow weary or faint;
whose wisdom is unsearchable,
giving energy to the meek
and strength to those who have none.
Even youths shall faint and grow weary,
young athletes shall fall exhausted;
but those who love the Lord Jesus
and patiently put their trust in God,
shall renew their strength;
they shall soar with wings like eagles,
they shall run and not weary,
they shall walk and not faint.
