Bible Verse:
“Even to old age I am he, and even to grey hairs I will carry you. I have made, and I will bear. Yes, I will carry, and will deliver.” – Isaiah 46:4 (WEBBE)
Reflection:
Grief can make us feel as though we are carrying an unbearable weight, one that leaves us feeling fragile, vulnerable, and worn down. The pain of loss can make us question how we will ever move forward, how we will find the strength to face another day. In these moments, we need a reminder that we are not alone, that we are carried by a God who knows our pain and promises to be with us always.
Isaiah 46:4 speaks of the deep, unwavering support of our Creator. He assures us that from the time we are born until our final days, He is there. Even as we age and face new challenges, His commitment to us does not waver. He is not only our Creator but also our sustainer. He carries us when we are weak, cradles us when we are fragile, and walks with us through the most difficult seasons of life.
Take comfort in knowing that God’s promise is not just for the moments when we are strong and able, but especially for times when we feel like we can’t take another step. He is there to bear our burdens, to deliver us from overwhelming grief, and to guide us with His steadfast love. His support is as constant as the rising sun and as enduring as the mountains.
Today, remind yourself that you are being carried by the Creator of the universe. He sees your tears, feels your pain, and gently holds you as you walk this difficult path. Even when it feels as though you can no longer stand, trust that His strength is sufficient for you. He will bear you up, uphold you, and bring you to a place of peace.
Prayer:
Lord, thank you for being my constant support. In moments when my grief feels overwhelming, help me remember that you are carrying me. Your promise to hold and deliver me is a comfort I cling to. Help me to trust you more each day and find rest in your unending love. Amen.
Course of Action for Today:
Today, take time to pause and acknowledge God’s sustaining presence in your life. Find a quiet space where you can be alone with your thoughts and emotions. Close your eyes, take deep breaths, and picture yourself being carried in the loving arms of God. Remind yourself that even in your moments of weakness and exhaustion, He is with you, holding you up and offering you strength.
