Hope in Suffering

Defeated Weariness

In “A Praying Life”, Paul Miller says that “defeated weariness comes just before cynicism.”

Today, I am in the battle of faith’s fight against defeated weariness.
But isn’t it hard to engage in the battle when you are so weary?

 

Thank God that all He calls us to He also supplies.

‘Lord, my heart is not proud. And my eyes are not haughty. And I do not go after things too great and too difficult for me. Surely I have composed and quieted my soul, like a weaned child on his mother, like a weaned child on me is my soul. Israel, hope in the Lord now and forever.’ Psalm 131 as translated by David Powlison
