inspiring word of encouragement

Be still in your own strength and ability Seek the Lord, and his strength: seek his face evermore. Trust in the Lord with all your heart lean not to your own understanding. For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith the Lord. For as the Heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts. There are many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the Lord, that shall stand. I wait for the Lord, my soul doth wait, and in His word do I hope. My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might He increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall, But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man.O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for His mercy endureth for ever.Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom He hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy . He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in Him. Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord. I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies. The Lord liveth; and blessed be my rock; and let the God of my salvation be exalted. It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect. He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and setteth me upon my high places. He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms. The Lord is high above all nations, and His Glory above the Heavens. Who is like unto the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high. Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established. Blessed be the Lord my strength which teaches my hands to war and my fingers to fight.
