Encouraging Scripture-Take time to regroup

Even youths shall faint and grow weary, and young men shall fall exhausted; but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.
Isaiah 40:30-31 (ESV) from Bible Gateway

We all have times when we feel like a dog chasing his own tail and not doing anything but tiring ourselves out.  This passage encourages us to stop, rest, and wait for direction from the Lord.  While we gather our strength, He will show us a path where we won't be running in circles, we'll be soaring like eagles.  He won't tackle us on the run to do that however, we have to slow down, receive, regroup, and restart.
