Finding God’s Strength When You’re Emotionally Drained

If you've ended your day emotionally exhausted and spiritually running on empty, you are not alone. In this evening's prayer, Amanda Idleman shares her deeply personal journey of foster parenting a medically fragile infant while raising six children during a chaotic summer. With honest vulnerability, she invites us to consider the weight of uncertainty and emotional depletion—and the profound truth that God meets us there. Whether you’re navigating sleepless nights, strained relationships, waiting on life-changing news, or simply trying to keep up with your daily responsibilities, Amanda reminds us that: God sees your weariness. His strength is made perfect in your weakness. Even when you feel like giving up, you’re never alone. Scripture doesn't promise a pain-free path, but Isaiah 40:29 assures us that God will increase our strength when our own supply runs dry. You don’t have to muscle through this season alone. Rest in His power and presence tonight. 📖 Tonight’s Scripture: Isaiah 40:29 (NIV) “He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.”🔗 Read Isaiah 40:29 at BibleStudyTools.com 🙏 Your Nightly Prayer God,I thank you that you are the God who sees me.You see the burdens I’ve been carrying.
