"Where there is no vision, the people perish." Proverbs 29:18
The word "perish" conjures up mages of deterioration and decay, like fruit rotting from within. On what specific day does passion leave a marriage or a worker lose interest in a job that once excited them? Like air leaking silently out of a tire, what was meant to carry our weight and to power us toward our destiny can now barely wobble. If that's how you're feeling now, read this promise, and let it take root within you: "He gives power to the tires and worn out, and strength to the weak. Even though youths shall be exhausted, and the young men will give up. But they that wait upon 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" (Isa 40:29-31 TLB). The great apostle Paul told his admirers, "We too are only human, like you" (Ac 14:15 NIV). We are all made of the same flawed material. That's why we need God's strength and mercy newly bestowed on us each day (See La 3:22-23). So, what should you do when you're feeling blah? Two things. First, if you're physically tired--rest. Second, think about how God's family works and stop isolating. The Bible says, "Carry each other's burdens and humility to receive from them. Reach out. Use your connections. Start reading God's Word. Listen to uplifting music and fill your space with praise. when you do these things, your focus will change, and your faith will start to rise.
